CSSJ (Centre for the Study of Social Justice)
The Centre for the Study of Social Justice is a forum for Oxford’s distinguished grouping of political theorists to share their expertise, collaborate on research projects, and publicise their work to the broader academic and policy-making community.
Questions of social justice cover a wide range: philosophical and practical, theoretical and applied, global, domestic and historic. Encompassing this variety, the Centre for the Study of Social Justice provides a unique opportunity for intellectual exchange on a subject of fundamental political significance.
The Centre aims to make connections and build bridges: between different aspects of the theoretical study of social justice; with other disciplines such as Philosophy, Law, Economics, Sociology and Social Policy; and with the world of policy.
The CSSJ has links with:
- Centre for Ethics, Law and Public Affairs (University of Warwick)
- Centre for Moral, Social and Political Theory (Australian National University)
Visitors
The Centre welcomes applications to visit from academics at institutions in the UK and overseas, advanced doctoral research students, and those with a professional or academic interest in social justice. It particularly welcomes applications from those wishing to hold post-doctoral fellowships at the Centre.
