Abstract

Organizational justice has come a long way in the last six decades. Through the 1950s until the 2000s, it diverged from being a single-dimensional construct (distributive justice) to a four-dimensional construct (distributive, procedural, interpersonal and informational justice). However, by the mid-1980s, it again started moving towards convergence in the form of integrative and overall justice. This article provides a comprehensive timeline review of major historical milestones in this interesting journey of justice. It chronicles the relevant theories, evolution of various forms of justice, debates, discussions and disagreements related to the construct and the various measurement approaches used to operationalize it at different points of time. It ends by discussing the questions raised by researchers on the validity of the construct in the present era and what new paths lay ahead in the journey of justice.
