Abstract

The only justice that will achieve the ideal preached if in practice offers actually to be fair to the victims of unjustified violence. A justice that is done on an individual basis and seeking to meet specific ethical virtue of justice through law, has to be of service to the victims of unjustified violence. Justice has to overcome the material being abstract and, therefore, the focus of justice must necessarily be the victims of unjustified violence. A justice that emphasizes the victims, must be designed for the right, otherwise than as has traditionally been thought. The modern abstract discourse about justice must be overcome by the construction of a justice founded in memory of the victims. A new discourse is urgent for justice to be fair. In particular, the great catastrophes of war and human extermination policies have to rethink about the need to base a new discourse of justice. This is the discourse of anamnetic justice.
