Concept information

Preferred term

historic injustice  

Definition(s)

  • Claims to material reparations and symbolic restitution for historical injustices are based on the lasting impact of the deeds of previously living people on the well-being of currently living people and the moral quality of their deeds, respectively. These two grounds for claims to redressing historical injustices differ and raise different questions of interpretation. [Source: Encyclopedia of Political Theory; Historic Injustice]
