It was a scene right out of a Hollywood "slasher" movie—a beautiful woman’s terrified screams piercing the air, a dead body sprawled at her feet, blood staining the pristine sands of a Washington beach. But the blood is real, and the victim won’t be rising when a director yells, "Cut!" In one horrific instant, a homicide detective’s well-earned holiday has become a waking nightmare.

By shifting theoretical sights from justice to injustice, Simon recasts the nature of democracy and provides a new perspective on social problems. He examines the causes and effects of injustice, victims’ responses to injustice, and historical theories of disadvantage, revealing that those theories have important repercussions for contempo
