Global Justice & Finance
Can global justice be promoted by distributing money more equitably?Could even relatively small financial sacrifices by the affluent work, through benign leverage, to achieve that goal?Global Justice and Finance casts new light on such questions by considering what is presupposed about finance.Redistributive proposals assume money to be a reliable measure, store of value, and medium of exchange.Yet maintaining stable interest, inflation, and exchange rates in a dynamic capitalist economy is a considerable achievement involving a complex financial system.Such global coordination could, if so directed, contribute immensely to humanity's betterment, yet under the direction of a profit seeking elite it leaves a majority disempowered, impoverished, and indebted.To pay debts, ever more desperate measures to wrest value from the world's natural resources increase ecological pressures to harmful extremes, and those pressures do not stop short of driving wars.The profit seeking economy is held in place by the complex legal arrangements that constitute finance.Globally, there has developed, unannounced and unaccountably, what amounts to a privatised constitution - binding agreements that transcend sovereign jurisdictions.Hopes of redirecting the financial assets created within this system, by means of modest reforms, towards objectives of social justice and ecological sustainability may prove illusory.To achieve such objectives arguably requires the constitution of a global normative order guided by public and political decision-making.The achievement of a publicly accountable constitutional order that is superordinate to the financial system might be regarded as a revolutionary transformation.

'Revenge or Justice?'
Revenge is driven by a desire to inflict harm or suffering on someone in response to a perceived wrongdoing, often without consideration for fairness or due process. Justice, on the other hand, is about restoring balance and fairness by holding individuals accountable for their actions through a fair and impartial legal process. While revenge may provide temporary satisfaction, it often perpetuates a cycle of harm and does not address the root causes of the conflict. Justice, on the other hand, seeks to address the underlying issues and promote healing and reconciliation. Ultimately, justice is a more sustainable and constructive approach to resolving conflicts and addressing wrongdoing.

Closing the Equity Gap : Creating Wealth and Fostering Justice in Startup Investing
A social activist and an entrepreneur remake the future of investing and business, offering a win-win road map for creating wealth and addressing inequalities by investing in groundbreaking tech companies that defy assumptions from Silicon Valley to Wall Street. Companies backed by venture capital drive the U.S. economy, accounting for hundreds of billions of dollars in sales and profits.The problem is that most of the wealth created winds up enriching elites, while the businesses funded by venture capitalists widen economic inequality.Committed to doing things differently, tech venture capitalists Freada Kapor Klein and Mitch Kapor launched Kapor Capital to prove that investing in gap-closing startups—companies whose services or products close opportunity gaps for both communities of color and low-income communities—is good business.Over the past decade, they’ve broadened the definition of success to include profits and accountability for the impacts a business has on employees, communities, and the planet, helping to launch close to two hundred companies engaged in achieving social and economic justice while showing remarkable growth, with many valued in the hundreds of millions or billions of dollars. Like every VC firm, Kapor Capital has experienced high-profile blowups and total losses.But its investing principles have created a stunning new ecosystem of Black and Latinx entrepreneurs, CEOs, and investors, all devising innovative, effective solutions to address the most pernicious problems afflicting many of America’s poorest communities.In Closing the Equity Gap, Freada and Mitch share their core belief that all companies must make a positive impact and that the obstacles entrepreneurs overcome in life are a far better predictor of long-term success than the schools they attend or investment dollars they raise from friends and family.Using stories behind some of the most remarkable companies ever launched, they show that the standard investment model doesn’t work, how it can be fixed, and what the future could look like if more investors joined them.

A substantial proportion of the book details - at script level - how to conduct restorative conferences for incidents right across the behaviour spectrum to the point where parents and outside agencies may be involved.The practical examples are recognisable, everyday scenarios and the step-by-step application of the restorative process is illuminating.Margaret Thorsborne and David Vinegrad are international experts in behaviour and relationships.Between them they have trained education facilitators and led RP and community conferencing programmes on five continents.
