This course offers an opportunity to explore a number of areas, which may be defined within the broad heading of justice. It takes a realistic and critical look at the legal, social psychological, and political effects of the ‘justice system’ on people and their cities. Students will be asked to analyze these effects from the perspective of what is ‘just’ or ‘unjust’ - what can we do about it.
