“Algebra of Infinite Justice” is a phrase coined by Arundhati Roy, an Indian author and activist, in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks. In her essay, she delves into the complexities of global geopolitics and the consequences of the so-called “War on Terror” waged by powerful nations. Roy critiques the skewed logic and the hypocrisy embedded in the rhetoric of justice and retribution, highlighting the disproportionate use of force by powerful nations. She questions the idea of a just war and challenges the self-righteous narratives put forth by those in authority. The term “Algebra of Infinite Justice” serves as a powerful metaphor, urging readers to reconsider the mathematical precision with which violence is often meted out and the far-reaching, infinite repercussions it can have on innocent lives and the global landscape.
