Political Philosophy & Justice: The Options
Political Justice
Below is a handout I created that covers *some* of the "space of logical possibility" for how communities might organize themselves around different conceptions of justice. This handout draws from the "space of actuality possibility" or the different sorts of political arrangements that have appeared in the western world over the past 2,500 years. My aim was to give an overview via the three criteria of who rules, who counts as a citizen, and the distribution of goods. As a two page handout, it is necessarily incomplete but hopefully it serves as a good starting point for students new to political philosophy.
I placed a photo that I took below from the new Modesto mural project that appeared downtown in the past month.
