In the past decade there has been increasing attention to structural injustice and structural harm, though the issues have long been part of the discussion of group-based wrong. One of the challenges in discussing structural injustice is that it is not entirely clear what social structures are and how agents are situated in them. In this paper, I argue that a common philosophical understanding of society – what I call an associationist model – is inadequate and that a practice theoretic account provided by social theory better captures the phenomenon of structural injustice.
