Justice is not a natural phenomenon. Human social systems have long been in the making; and the idea of justice is only three to four thousand years old.
This was probably the most striking thing I read in this book. Justice is a man-made concept. Nature does not care about 'being just'. Justice has come from rational and thinking minds of humans, and it is upto us to define it, implement it (if we wish so) and sustain it, or not.
This also means that there cannot be a universal definition of justice, and different human, and accordingly different human groups (societies, nations, ethnicities, etc.) have different ideas of being just & different means and modes to implement it. And this here, poses a problem for modern cosmopolitan politics.
