Established
In Justice and the Politics of Difference (1990) Young identified five faces of oppression: exploitation, marginalisation, powerlessness, cultural imperialism and violence.
◆
Theory
Young's posthumous Responsibility for Justice (2011) defines structural injustice as social processes that put large categories of persons under a systematic threat of domination, and proposes forward-looking, shared responsibility discharged through collective action.
