Social Justice and community: forestry, energy, housing and land reform
Stark inequalities in land ownership, economic and social inequality in Scotland’s rural and urban environments can be traced to a historical processes of dispossession and exclusion. This project contends that addressing these requires a land reform that acknowledges the visibility of past injustice in the present and determines that the dispossessed are active in resource redistribution towards a socially just future
