Socioeconomic justice is a debated and, one may say, controversial concept: its role within the transitional justice practice and literature has been contested, while socioeconomic issues in peacebuilding have also remained marginal and often submitted to free market considerations. Broadly speaking, socioeconomic justice refers to providing redress for socioeconomic forms of violence or the violation of socioeconomic rights. Redress can be pursued through reparations, restitution, and/or redistribution. Especially in critical and most notably feminist scholarship, socioeconomic justice is considered to be an essential part of peacebuilding processes and of sustainable and gender-just peace.
