Regimi di giustificazione al lavoro

Abstract

The “sense of justice” as a political-moral object that animates social action – coordination, conflict, local compromise – is investigated by Luc Boltanski in the wake both of the Durkhemian and Weberian sociological tradition. It also constitutes one of the main areas of focus for the French pragmatic sociology, where it shifts from the perspective of “critical sociology” to the “sociology of critical capacity”, reconceptualising critique as a situated component of ordinary life and not (only) as the prerogative of an observer, external and in an elevated position in relation to the reality he investigates.
