" Scales of Justice makes an important contribution to rethinking democracy and offers tools for political experimentation. Such experimentation could add much to this project and extend Fraser s ideas further."
New Zealand Geographer

"Nancy Fraser breaks new ground in rethinking the meaning and consequences of justice in a globalized world. Building upon her earlier work on recognition and redistribution, she forcefully argues that we need to reimagine and reframe a political space of justice that transcends the domain of sovereign territorial states. As always, her essays are vigorous, fresh, lucid, and provocative. A must for anyone interested in the cutting edge of a critical theory of justice."
Richard Bernstein, New School for Social Research

"In this lucid and tightly argued book, Nancy Fraser raises the question of how to think about justice when the increasing salience of transnational and subnational processes makes state-centric conceptions of social justice less tenable than they ever were. A serious engagement with questions of this kind should be at the top of the agenda of anyone concerned with social justice, regardless of whether we agree or not with Fraser's thoughtful answers."
Giovanni Arrighi, The Johns Hopkins University

"Combining conceptual clarity with political imagination, Nancy Fraser breaks new ground for a critical theory of justice in an era of globalization. On the basis of a comprehensive analysis of relations of injustice in three dimensions, she asks us to reconsider traditional conceptions of who owes what to whom. A much needed guide to the largely unknown territory of a just global order."
