Overview
Goodman presents a general theory of justice that makes systematic use of Jewish sources. He takes an ontological approach to questions of natural and human justice, developing a theory of community and of non-vindictive yet retributive punishment that is grounded in an analysis of biblical, rabbinic, and philosophical Jewish sources.Editorials
