Recognition justice and distributional equity are not antithetical despite left academic complaints
Evidence
In addition, some on the academic left have lamented the move toward justice as recognition, especially as it has been developed in the ‘identity politics’ of social movements or the post-material critiques of the ‘cultural’ left. The whole point of Fraser’s forays into the examination of these various justice claims is to show that they are not antithetical. — David Schlosberg, Defining Environmental Justice, 103
