Miller, David. Principles of Social Justice. Cambridge, Mass: Harvard University Press, 1999.
Social justice makes 3 assumptions:
- we inhabit bounded societies, a connected body of people who form the universe of distribution;
- the principles must work through an identifiable set of institutions whose impact on the life chances of different individuals can be traced;
- there is some agency capable of changing the institutional structure in more or less the way our favoured theory demands.
