“结构性不公正”的概念有着悠久的思想渊源,但Iris Marion Young在2000年代后期的作品中普及了这个词。杨的理论抓住了当时的时代精神,为思考跨国和国内的不公正提供了一种可信的方式,阐明了政治、经济和社会结构在产生不公正方面的重要性,将个人在延续结构性不公正方面的作用理论化,以及每个人都有责任努力纠正这种不公正。杨的理论激发了二次和新颖的研究。在本文中,我概述了这篇最新文献中的主要主题:什么是结构性不公正,对结构性不公正的责任,对责任采取行动,避免责任,以及历史上的不公正。我最后指出,结构性不公正理论的影响是如何蔓延到政治理论的范围之外的。任何与结构性不平等、劣势或压迫有关的领域都可以利用结构性不公正理论。
The concept of "structural injustice" has a long intellectual lineage, but Iris Marion Young popularised the term in her late work in the 2000s. Young's theory tapped into the zeitgeist of the time, providing a credible way of thinking about transnational and domestic injustices, illuminating the importance of political, economic and social structures in generating injustice, theorising the role of individuals in perpetuating structural injustice, and the responsibility of everyone to try to correct it. Young's theory has inspired secondary and novel research. In this paper, I outline the main topics in this recent literature: what structural injustice is, responsibility for structural injustice, acting on responsibility, avoiding responsibility, and historical injustice. I conclude by noting how the influence of structural injustice theory is spreading beyond the confines of political theory. Any field that is concerned with structural inequalities, disadvantage, or oppression, can utilize structural injustice theory.
