Abstrakt: Administrative burden’s impact on distributive justice is well documented, but its effects on the procedural and interactional dimensions of social justice are less understood. Through a realist review of 104 articles, we identify eight mechanisms – administrative neutrality, marketization, devolution, means testing, benefit conditionality, service personalization, service digitization, and frontline discretion – that shape social justice outcomes based on implementation context variation. This study makes both a methodological and theoretical contribution, introducing the realist methodology and leveraging its strengths to link two of the discipline’s most prominent research areas: administrative burden and social justice.
