Affective Equality as a Key Issue of Justice : A Comment on Fraser’s 3-Dimensional Framework
No full textThe relational realities of nurturing constitute a discrete site of social practice within and through which inequalities are created. The affective worlds of love, care and solidarity are therefore sites of political import that need to be examined in their own right while recognizing their inter-relatedness with economic, political and cultural systems in the generation of injustice. Drawing on extensive sociological research undertaken on care work, paid work and on education in a range of different studies, this paper argues that Fraser’s three-dimensional framework for analyzing injustice needs to expanded to include a fourth, relational dimension.The affective relations within which caring is grounded constitute a discrete field of social action within and through which inequalities and exploitations can occur. Social justice issues are not confined to questions of redistribution, recognition or representation therefore; they also involve discrete sites of relational practice that impact on parity of participation, a principle which Fraser identifies as key to determining what is socially just.Not applicableTS 01.07.13This has been entered here as a working paper, however, journal details are entered too so I am not sure if the item type should be changed

Gateways to Justice: design and operational guidelines for remote participation in court proceedings
No full textThese practical working design and operational guidelines emerged from the evidence-base generated by the ARC Linkage project, Gateways to Justice: improving video-mediated communication for justice participants, and fulfills an explicit aim of the project. Aimed at court administrators, architects and the judiciary they map best-practice procedures for accessing court proceedings remotely, and set design guidance for the construction of remote spaces for court participation in courthouses and other remote sites. This work forms part of a burgeoning international research interest in both court design and the impact of distributed spaces on architecture. This output is innovative as it sets a new benchmark for the legible dissemination of qualitative research findings that are accessible to practitioners. The guidelines will empower court administrators and the judiciary to apply the research findings to tangibly improve the experience of justice for remote court participants, and increase access to justice. Remote participation in court proceedings is expanding at a rapid rate, not only in Australia but worldwide. To date, implementation of the technology has been relatively ad hoc, with little awareness that the use of the technology fundamentally alters the experience of attending court. This document is important as, for the first time, it creates comprehensive and holistic guidance for courts to improve the design and procedures of remote participation in court proceedings. The recommendations made in these guidelines are currently informing national court policy, and are sought internationally
