Justice Is Conflict by Stuart Hampshire
Develops a distinction between justice in procedures, which demands that both sides in a conflict should be heard, and justice in matters of substance, which will always be disputed.
"This elegant small volume.. offers a novel account of how to reason about the universal and particular in politics by examining the tensions between them in the workings of the human mind."--Mark Lilla, The New York Review of Books "This book deserves a wide attentive readership... Hampshire ... believes that the paradigm of deliberative reason lies in public forums like the courts rather than individual delibertation, which has dominated recent philosophical treatments of the subject... [He] denies reason can show some particular conception of justice to be best."--Glen Newey, Times Literary Supplement
