Asymmetrical Attitudes and Participatory Justice

Authors

Michael Giudice, York University

Abstract

The article explores the asymmetry in attitudes toward law between legal officials and citizens, arguing that this disconnect leads to deficiencies in moral justice. It suggests that participatory justice practices, inspired by Aboriginal legal traditions, can bridge this gap by emphasizing context-sensitive, individualized approaches to dispute resolution.
