This wide-ranging collection of essays, contributed by scholars from diverse global contexts, examines various depictions of justice in a variety of art forms across times, cultures, and places. Essays consider drama, novel, virtual performance, poetry, film, long form drama series and installation and performance art, demonstrating how these diverse works offer profound insights into the administration of justice and the respect, reinforcement, or disputation of the rule of law. Outlined are the urgent needs to address manifest inequalities and oppressions. In their calls on justice, these essays are not utopian, transcendental or universal in orientation, rather they emphasise potential interventions that are both urgent and redressable.
