- catalog abstract ""What does it mean to have a "sense of justice"? Why is clarity about the sense of justice a critical issue in contemporary legal theory? And what contribution can be made by a naturalistic theory enlightened by research in the life sciences?" "The distinguished contributors to The Sense of Justice introduce scholars and advanced students to the social and behavioral foundations for the "sense of justice"--A form of balance or equilibrium that both individuals and legal systems seek to achieve and maintain in a changing and complex world. With diverse disciplinary backgrounds, the contributors bring various viewpoints to bear on the prospect of a more coherent theory of human justice. The Sense of Justice draws upon new discoveries and insights from the biologically based behavioral sciences that are critical for an enlightened understanding of legal phenomena, especially those dealing with complex social and political relationships."--Jacket.".
