Socrates says: "Let us place the most just regime side by side the most unjust, and when we see them we shall be able to compare…" Though it's not the aim, what we get at the end of the dialogue is a theory of regime decline, with Socrates explaining why governments sink from higher to lower forms.

L'Osservatore Romano, 1 March 1947 Pope Pius responded in his Easter message to Communist leaders who attacked his policies: : The Church of Rome is subjected these days to public denunciations and the most unjust attacks.

He will also provoke warfare to consolidate his position as leader. In this way, tyranny is the most unjust regime of all.

He describes how an aristocrat may become weak or detached from political and material affluence, and how his son will respond to this by becoming overly ambitious.

Taussig, Tariff History pp. 109–24 In examining these debates Moore finds that they were not precursors to Civil War. Instead they looked backward and continued the old debate whether foreign trade policy should embrace free trade or protectionism.John A. Moore, "The Grossest and Most Unjust Species of Favoritism: Competing Views of Republican Political Economy: The Tariff Debates of 1841 and 1842", Essays in Economic & Business History (2011) 29: 59–73.

Socrates discusses four unjust constitutions: timocracy, oligarchy, democracy, and tyranny. He argues that a society will decay and pass through each government in succession, eventually becoming a tyranny, the most unjust regime of all. The starting point is an imagined, alternate aristocracy (ruled by a philosopher-king); a just government dominated by the wisdom-loving element. When its social structure breaks down and enters civil war, it is replaced by timocracy.

This developed as the city of New Rochelle, New York. Leisler's son and supporters found the trial and conviction most unjust; it was mounted by his enemies.

Remains of the two men were reinterred with honors at the Dutch Reformed Church in Manhattan.

Chaytor described the Aragonese Crusade as "perhaps the most unjust, unnecessary and calamitous enterprise ever undertaken by the Capetian monarchy." W. C.

In 1833, during the presidency of Mariano Prado, reformations were imposed that caused dissatisfaction, including a personal tax that was interpreted as a restoration of the tribute, one of the most unjust colonial taxes of the time. It was Santiago de Nonaluco that a rebellion began under the leadership of Aquino.

Kowalik wrote in 1996: "In Europe of the second half of the 20th century, one of the most unjust socioeconomic systems came into being in Poland". He argued that Prime Minister Tadeusz Mazowiecki (Poland's first non-communist chief of government) and his circle could have chosen a different course and he spoke of "Mazowiecki's ideological failure". Social inequities, Kowalik claimed, destabilize the foundations of political institutions in liberal democracy. From the early 1990s, Kowalik promoted many of the ideas later popularized by Thomas Piketty.

Philip III of France in 1284 responded, through the urging of his wife Mary of Brabant and his uncle Charles of Naples, by launching a war against the Kingdom of Aragon. The war took the name "Aragonese Crusade" from its papal sanction; nevertheless, one historian labelled it "perhaps the most unjust, unnecessary and calamitous enterprise ever undertaken by the Capetian monarchy.". Philip, accompanied by his sons, entered Roussillon at the head of a large army. By 26 June 1285, he had entrenched his army before Girona and besieged the city.

Many African-Americans had come from the Deep South and Kansas because of the opportunity to strike gold because of the rich oil fields. During the Jim Crow era, African-Americans were not allowed to make purchases or services in predominantly white areas. In particular, Oklahoma was known to have some of the harshest and most unjust Jim Crow laws in the country. Some economists theorize this forced many African-Americans to spend their money where they would feel welcomed, effectively insulating cash flow to within the black community and allowing Greenwood to flourish and prosper.

"quoted in Chernow, Grant, p. 55. Grant later recalled in his Memoirs, published in 1885, that "Generally, the officers of the army were indifferent whether the annexation [of Texas] was consummated or not; but not so all of them. For myself, I was bitterly opposed to the measure, and to this day regard the war, which resulted, as one of the most unjust ever waged by a stronger against a weaker nation. It was an instance of a republic following the bad example of European monarchies, in not considering justice in their desire to acquire additional territory.

In retrospect, although he respected Scott he identified his leadership style with Taylor's. However, Grant also wrote that the Mexican war was morally unjust and that the territorial gains were designed to expand slavery, stating, "I was bitterly opposed to the measure ... and to this day, regard the war which resulted as one of the most unjust ever waged by a stronger against a weaker nation." He opined that the Civil War was divine punishment on the U.S. for its aggression against Mexico. During the war, Grant discovered his "moral courage" and began to consider a career in the army.

A major source of contention between Christian and O'Hagan was the First Irish Land Act 1870, which O'Hagan steered through Parliament. The Act provided for compensation for tenants in the event of eviction. Christian, though he was not a landowner and was not as a rule much interested in politics, objected strongly to the policy of the Act, which he believed to be most unjust to landlords. His attacks from the Bench on the Act led to serious rebukes both from the House of Commons and from the Press, which commented on the impropriety of a judge attacking an Act of Parliament, which it was his duty to enforce.

He has also been described as a "follower of the 9/11 truth movement." In 2006, he was arrested for openly growing cannabis on his balcony, which he explained in a podcast was due to his "belief that cannabis prohibition is the last defensible and most unjust aspect of the prohibitionist regime".

Many in the Whig party "were fearful of spreading out too widely", and they "adhered to the concentration of national authority in a limited area". In July 1848, Alexander Stephens denounced President Polk's expansionist interpretation of America's future as "mendacious". Ulysses S. Grant, served in the war with Mexico and later wrote: : I was bitterly opposed to the measure [to annex Texas], and to this day regard the war [with Mexico] which resulted as one of the most unjust ever waged by a stronger against a weaker nation. It was an instance of a republic following the bad example of European monarchies, in not considering justice in their desire to acquire additional territory.

The term “collateral warranty” originates in property law. In 1839 Nick Grimsley wrote: “A collateral warranty is where the heir neither does nor could derive his title to the land from the warrantor; and yet is both de- barred from claiming title and bound to recompense in case of eviction.”.“An Abridgement of the American Law of Real Property”, by Francis Hilliard counsellor at Law, Volume II, entered accordingly to Act of Congress in the year 1839. The concept of collateral warranty was sometimes regarded as “[…] the most unjust, oppressive, and indefensible in the whole range of common law.” .“An Abridgement of the American Law of Real Property”, by Francis Hilliard counsellor at Law, Volume II, entered accordingly to Act of Congress in the year 1839.
