Can affirmative action policies be convincingly justified? How have they been legitimized over time? In a pluridisciplinary perspective at the intersection of political theory and the sociology of law, Sabbagh criticizes the two prevailing justifications put forward in favor of affirmative action: the corrective justice argument and the diversity argument.
