Source: What is Social Justice? from Prager University.com.
Just like global warming no-one really knows what social justice means. The same with economic justice and any other term with the word “justice” at the end. Justice is about righting an individual wrong. The key word here is “individual.” I don’t know how a person can right a wrong done to a group of people. It doesn’t make sense. Your are dealing with abstract concepts. Each person in that group may feel he was done wrong in different ways and different degrees and wants different justice done. The only way to make the concept work is if you ignore individual difference in the group. In other words, you stereotype the members. And that’s not fair to the group.
Informative and interesting video.
