{"product_id":"justice-max-malikow-9798349272271","title":"Justice: Understanding Fairness in an Unfair World","description":"\u003cp\u003eClarence Darrow, perhaps America's most celebrated 20th century lawyer, lamented, \"There is no justice anywhere - in or out of court.\" But do we want justice as much as we claim? Perfect justice would mean a citation for every \"rolling stop\" and speeding ticket every time we exceed the speed limit by at least one mile-per-hour. Further, when is the exclamation, \"No fair!\" an objective assessment rather than a subjective reaction to conditions not to our liking? In this treatise Professor Malikow analyzes justice by defining it and addressing when it is incompatible with morality. Questions addressed in this book include: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHow does the law sometimes create unfairness?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat constitutes a fair distribution of wealth?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShould some athletes and entertainers earn more than the President of the United States?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat is fair compensation for wrongful imprisonment?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHow is action determined when the law prevents compassion?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLegally, when are we not responsible for our behavior?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIs capital punishment cruel and inhumane?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat is the veil of ignorance?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen is civil disobedience justified?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMax Malikow is on the faculty of Syracuse University's Renee Crown Honors Program, an Adjunct Professor of Philosophy at LeMoyne College, and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor.
