Jon Jost's presentation from 2007 Project on Law and Mind Sciences (PLMS) Conference.
"System justification theory addresses the holding of attitudes that are often contrary to one's own self-interest and therefore contrary to what one would expect on the basis of theories of self-enhancement or rational self-interest."
