Justice for the Past

Více o knize

The book presents a philosophical critique of preferential treatment programs and reparations for slavery, arguing they are unjust. Kershnar asserts that resources should be allocated based on current abilities rather than historical injustices. He contends that since both victims and perpetrators of slavery are deceased, modern claims for compensation are unfounded. Furthermore, he argues that the existence of individuals today is a result of past events, complicating any claims for reparations. Lastly, he highlights the difficulties in accurately determining compensation amounts due to various factors.
