RE-THINKING THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM AS CAPTURED THROUGH THE EYES OF FACTS, FOUCAULT & FILMS
Downloads
Abstract
In Classical Greek, Aristotle differentiated between ‘Universal’ and ‘Particular’ Justice, where the former was a ‘virtue as a whole’ and the latter of a ‘narrower scope’, and in aggregate it meant and obliged one to be ‘righteous’. He goes on to assert that the complete/whole virtue ought to be understood in the context of another person, when we speak of Morality. Down through the ages, we witnessed other Philosophers shape the meaning of ‘Justice’, notably through the concepts of Utilitarianism, Contractarianism and Egalitarianism. But each time that this happened, we noticed vast differences in the propagation of Justice theoretically and its application in practicality, along with the failure to have a straitjacket definition for Justice.
