Key research themes

1. How do distributive and procedural justice perceptions shape economic and organizational fairness outcomes?

This theme investigates the interplay and conceptual convergence between distributive justice—which concerns the fairness of economic resource distribution—and procedural justice, which focuses on the fairness of the processes that lead to these distributions. Understanding these justice perceptions is crucial because they influence individual and collective attitudes, cooperation, and engagement within social institutions and organizations. The theme also encompasses how these perceptions are measured and their role in predicting behaviors like organizational loyalty, counterproductive actions, and policy legitimacy.

Key finding: This work argues that procedural justice (fairness of processes) and distributive justice (fairness of outcomes) are more intertwined than traditionally considered, proposing a monistic perspective for their... Read more

2. What are the social justice challenges and legal dimensions in global and local economic institutions?

This theme explores normative issues arising from the administration of global economic governance and local legal practices affecting marginalized groups. It includes critical analyses of international organizations like the WTO in light of egalitarian justice principles, as well as the intersection of political and distributive justice in institutional contexts. The theme also highlights how law and institutional frameworks combat or exacerbate inequalities in sectors ranging from international trade to artisanal fisheries, situating justice debates at the nexus of law, policy, and social realities.

Key finding: This essay systematically critiques the WTO’s mandate for global trade liberalization from an egalitarian justice perspective, arguing that while the WTO aspires to multilateral fairness, its principles and policies often... Read more

3. How can emerging technologies influence economic justice, empowerment, and organizational fairness?

This theme addresses the nexus of technological innovation, economic justice, and empowerment within contemporary contexts. It evaluates how technology-driven frameworks—such as AI, blockchain, automated e-coaching systems, and Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policies—intersect with concepts of social justice, workplace fairness, and inclusion. The research highlights both the opportunities for empowerment and the potential for exacerbating inequalities, coercion, and privacy concerns, emphasizing the need for balanced governance and ethical frameworks to ensure technology enhances rather than undermines justice.

Key finding: The article identifies three core social justice concerns arising from widespread adoption of automated e-coaching: unequal technology access exacerbating inequalities; disproportionate restrictions on individual liberty and... Read more
