The structural injustice framework has been used to discuss domestic political questions. But can it also be used to consider global social and political challenges?
The guiding question of this conference is: Can the concept of structural injustice be fruitfully applied to global problems?
For example, can the harms of climate change, forced displacement, gender inequality, economic inequality, etc., be understood as forms of structural injustice?
Furthermore, can this framework help us to understand how we should ascribe responsibility for these global challenges?
