How we understand justice as a value, ethic, principle or practice is mediated through relationships and systems that cross historical, political, economic, social, spatial and environmental domains. These intersecting domains shape how justice works, or struggles to be expressed. Research in this program helps us to comprehend the complex arrangements that contribute to, transform, or undermine justice through:
- Geopolitics
- Systems of governance and regulation
- Flows of information, people, goods and services
- Place and space
- The well-being of the planet and species that inhabit it
- Social change and activism
