Abstract: | In the leisure theory literature, local authority leisure services and professionals are frequently criticised as being inequitable in terms of service allocation. The aim of this paper is to extend the idea of leisure as a profession in a light of contrasted political conceptions of justice. The authors interrogate the problematic notion of social justice in resource allocation decisions made by leisure professionals in public organizations. They present an alternative exploration of equity as a function of indeterminate principles of justice. |
