by Charles Quist-Adade (Author)

“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.”—Martin Luther King Jr. “Be the change you wish to see in the world.”—Mahatma Gandhi “Thought without practice is blind; practice without thought is empty.”—Kwame NkrumahThese quotes aptly capture the spirit, the essence, and reach of this book. From the Local to the Global: Theories and Key Issues in Global Social Justice explores and explains the relationships between social justice as it is conceived, constructed, understood and implemented locally and globally. It does so by examining social justice from a theoretical and substantive perspective.
