'As one of the world's most important scientific contributors to the study of fair processes throughout his career, Kees van den Bos covers the literature comprehensively. In this book, he uses his encyclopedic knowledge to define and operationalize the research on perceived procedural justice as applied to societal discontent, polarization, conspiracy thinking, and the prevention of unwarranted distrust. It is an extraordinary accomplishment.' Robert Folger, University of Central Florida, USA 'Brilliant! Written by one of the pre-eminent scholars in the field of social justice, this clear and cogent presentation of research, theory, and application of the fair process effect - a remarkably powerful social psychological phenomenon - is a 'must read' for social psychologists, sociologists, political scientists, legal scholars, and policy makers.' Allan Lind, Duke University, USA 'Scholars and practitioners in management and law recognize the value of building rules and institutions around the psychological principles of the fair process effect. This deeply researched, compellingly written and engagingly optimistic book highlights the benefits of using this same model to address the political issues of polarization, distrust, and conspiracy thinking.' Tom Tyler, Yale University, USA
