Critical Reflection on Nancy Fraser’s Theory of Justice

Deqiang XU, Xiaonan HONG

Abstract


Complying with the development needs of the globalization era, Nancy Fraser’s theory of justice criticizes and reconstructs Western theorists’ theory of justice, as represented by John Rawls and Axel Honneth, post-1990s. To understand the connotation and value orientation of such theory correctly, this paper analyzed and evaluated its contributions and limitations through critical reflection on the dimensions and normative foundations determined by such theory.
