The doctoral dissertation is located in the field of geography of justice and is also the first Finnish dissertation research related to the geography of justice. The dissertation research creates new theoretical and empirical openings for the discussion on spatial justices and geographies of justices, in which the research participates in the form of three sub-publications and a summary section that synthetically connects them. The research builds one perspective on the geography of justice by combining the geographical research approach with the philosophical, jurisprudential, and historical research approaches. By highlighting the understanding of relativity related to the object of justice and spatial conceptions of justice, the dissertation increases awareness of the space for togetherness created by fundamental rights, and hence builds a bridge for cooperation in both scientific and societal life.
