One of the most significant contemporary lessons from development work around the world is that national judicial systems-and access to them-are of critical importance in the struggle against poverty. Contending that legal strategies play an important role in protection of human rights, this book discusses important global issues related to human rights including human justice and security. It examines institutional strategies that aim at accelerating human justice delivery, and securing civil, political, socio-economic, and cultural rights. The work also puts in perspective a number of practical recommendations for justice programming and development. Establishing the essential link between poverty reduction and justice programming, it clarifies conceptual issues related to justice from the perspective of the weak and marginalized. The essays in the volume address crucial issues such as practical and effective strategies for securing access to justice for the poor and means for evaluating justice programming from a results-based perspective. Further it focuses on the interplay between poverty, good governance, and accountability instrumental in realizing the Millennium Development Goals, and ensuring participation and non-discrimination in developmental decision-making. Addressing important issues such as access to justice in plural legal systems, public interest litigation, the effects of globalization, and denial of women's rights, the book examines judicial reform initiatives.

Can the Old Testament help us in keeping the excesses of capitalism in check? How can a book that goes on about “justice and righteousness,” but says “there will always be poor people in the land” and accepts slavery have anything to say to us about social justice? Did kings of Israel draft their subjects—and which subjects—for forced labor? What does it mean when the Psalms say God is coming to judge the world? Is charity justice?—or is justice more than charity? Does Genesis give us the right to use the earth and its creatures as we like? These are some of the questions that Walter Houston asks, and tries to answer, in this book of essays from his work over the last twenty-five years.

Poor Justice: How the Poor Fare in the Courts provides a vivid portrait and appraisal of how the lives of poor people are disrupted or helped by the judicial system, from the lowest to the highest courts. Drawing from court room observations, court decisions, and other material, this book spans the street level justice of administrative hearings and lower courts (where people plead for welfare benefits or for a child not to be taken away), the mid-level justice of state courts (where advocates argue for the right to shelter for the homeless and for the rights of the mentally disabled), and the high justice of the Supreme Court (where the battle for school integration has represented a route out of poverty and the stop and frisk cases illustrate a route to greater poverty, through the mass incarceration of people of color). Poor Justice brings readers inside the courts, telling the story through the words and actions of the judges, lawyers, and ordinary people who populate it. It seeks to both edify and criticize. Readers will learn not only how courts work, but also how courts sometimes help - and often fail - the poor.

Illustrates the issue of economic inequality within the American justice system. The best-selling text, The Rich Get Richer and the Poor Get Prison contends that the criminal justice system is biased against the poor from start to finish. The authors argue that even before the process of arrest, trial, and sentencing, the system is biased against the poor in what it chooses to treat as crime. The authors show that numerous acts of the well-off--such as their refusal to make workplaces safe, refusal to curtail deadly pollution, promotion of unnecessary surgery, and prescriptions for unnecessary drugs--cause as much harm as the acts of the poor that are treated as crimes. However, the dangerous acts of the well-off are almost never treated as crimes, and when they are, they are almost never treated as severely as the crimes of the poor. Not only does the criminal justice system fail to protect against the harmful acts of well-off people, it also fails to remedy the causes of crime, such as poverty. This results in a large population of poor criminals in our prisons and in our media. The authors contend that the idea of crime as a work of the poor serves the interests of the rich and powerful while conveying a misleading notion that the real threat to Americans comes from the bottom of society rather than the top. Learning Goals Upon completing this book, readers will be able to: Examine the criminal justice system through the lens of the poor. Understand that much of what goes on in the criminal justice system violates one’s own sense of fairness. Morally evaluate the criminal justice system’s failures. Identify the type of legislature that is biased against the poor.

Through this six-session small group Bible study (DVD/digital video sold separately), Jim Wallis and Sojourners teaches you to connect biblical faith with contemporary responses to poverty, both in your neighborhood and around the world. According to Wallis, "When the wealthy are dying from diseases of overabundance and the poor are dying from inadequate health care, poor diets, and stress-related illnesses, there is spiritual disease in society." Justice for the Poor recaptures the biblical vision that links poverty with justice. Jesus' life and teaching shows a deep compassion toward the poor and marginalized. His messages often highlight the injustices shown to the poor and the prejudices the well-off have against them. How can we learn from the poor? What is our responsibility to care for the poor and to advocate for justice on their behalf? Jim Wallis and Sojourners will engage your small group to take action. Sessions include: Burger King Mom: Being Poor in America Is There Something Wrong With the Prosperity Gospel? At the Corner of Church and State: What's the Proper Role of Each in Caring for the Poor? The Gospel According to New Orleans Outside the Gate: The Poor and the Global Economy Beyond "Serial Charity" to a Just Society " Designed for use with the Justice for the Poor Video Study (sold separately).
