Political injustice involves the violation of
individuals liberties , including the denial of voting rights or due process,
infringement on rights to freedom
of speech or religion, ad inadequate protection from cruel and unusual punishment. Such injustice often stems from unfair procedures, and involves political system in which some but not others are allowed to have voice
and representation in the processes
and decisions that affect them. This sort of
procedural
injustice can contribute to serious
social problems as well as political ones. If
voting or litigation procedures, for example, are perceived to be unjust, any outcome
they produce is liable to be unstable and produce conflict.
In addition, any procedures that are carried out in a
biased manner are likely to contribute
to problem of religious, ethnic, gender, or race discrimination. When the procedure in question
has to do with employment or wages, such issues can lead to serious
economic and social problems.
