正义理论旨在指导实际选择，但正义理论难以为气候变化适应实践中必须做出的许多决定提供信息。本文通过分析适应管理者经常面临的困境的正义维度，突出了理论与实践之间的差距，并以财产收购为例进行了分析。正义理论努力帮助决策者：优先分配资源;分配既造成伤害又带来好处的计划;权衡不确定的伤害和好处;确定参与者并解决参与过程中的冲突;以及纠正历史上的不公正。改进适应正义的建议如果不能解决管理者所面临的一个或多个实际困境，就不太可能推进这一事业。在缺乏理论或政策指导的情况下，决策往往是由管理者无意识的政治观点形成的，如对政府作用和收购目的的看法。根据当地情况制定与司法有关的决定可能比普遍的司法方法带来更大的好处，但当与司法有关的决定是透明的，并通过理论和经验工作提供信息时，相对的方法最有可能是公正的。透明度对于问责制、评价和政策学习至关重要。公正的决定往往受到有限的权力、资源和体制目标的制约，因此，在气候适应方面实现更大的公正可能需要改变作出适应决定的更大的治理体系。建议进一步对适应正义进行更细致的评估，通过提高实践透明度进行更多的比较分析，并采取更全面的适应治理方法。
Justice theory is intended to guide practical choices, but justice theories struggle to inform many decisions that must be made in climate change adaptation practice. This paper highlights gaps between theory and practice by analyzing the justice dimensions of dilemmas routinely faced by adaptation administrators, using the example of property acquisitions to ground the analysis. Justice theories struggle to assist decision-makers in: prioritizing distribution of resources; distributing programs that cause both harms and benefits; weighing uncertain harms and benefits; identifying participants and resolving conflicts in participatory processes; and redressing historic injustices. Proposals to improve adaptation justice that do not address one or more of the practical dilemmas faced by administrators are unlikely to advance the cause. Absent theoretical or policy guidance, decisions are often shaped by administrators’ unconscious heuristics such as views on the role of government and the purpose of buyouts. Tailoring justice-relevant decisions to local contexts may provide greater benefits than a universal approach to justice, but a relative approach is most likely to be just when justice-relevant decisions are transparent and informed by theoretical and empirical work. Transparency is critical for accountability, evaluation, and policy learning. Justice decisions are often constrained by limited authority, resources, and institutional goals, so achieving greater justice in climate adaptation may require changes in the larger governance systems within which adaptation decisions are made. More nuanced evaluations of adaptation justice, more comparative analyses, enabled by greater transparency in practice, and more holistic approaches to adaptation governance are recommended moving forward.
