Borderscapes of differential inclusion : subjectivity and struggles on the threshold of justice's excess

Research output: Chapter in Book / Conference Paper › Chapter

Abstract

![CDATA["Spheres of Justice" was the title of the Second Critical Studies Conference, held by the Calcutta Research Group in Kolkata in September 2007. What sense does it make to collocate the concepts of spheres and justice? For us, this is not an innocent move. Both the concept of justice and that of the sphere conjure up notions of perfectibility. The sphere is that most faultless of voluminous forms. In ancient cosmology, it provided the basis for semimystical notions of harmony: the music of the spheres. It is the billiard balls of modern mechanics, the very symbols of cause and effect.]]
