The following information is about Reparations.

Reparations Defined

Benefits given to some group to make amends for damage done by previous injustice. For example, Japanese-Americans who were placed in internment camps during the World War II were recently given a monetary payment (of about $20,000) as reparations. Because children may be damaged by injustice done to their forebears, say because poverty undermines their health or limits their educational opportunities, arguments are made for reparations to descendants of those who were first injured, if the consequences of the injury are of the sort that pass from one generation to the next.

This definition is in context to Ethics. See more contextual defintions for Reparations.
