«'In this path-breaking book, Alasia Nuti develops a new way to combine reflections on historical and structural injustice.

«'This is a major contribution to our thinking about historical injustice, and especially innovative in taking the position of women as a paradigmatic example. By putting gender at the centre of her analysis, Nuti is able to make compelling new arguments about the normative significance of the unjust past.' Anne Phillips, author of The Politics of the Human»
«'Arguing that discussions about historical injustice wrongly conceptualises history, Alasia Nuti reframes the debate by developing a structural account of history. This new account of history, alongside a focus on women, allows us to see historical injustices in new and important ways. This is a provocative and insightful book that is a major contribution to the literature on historical injustice.' Jeff Spinner-Halev, Kenan Professor of Political Science, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill»
