Social Justice Revision

Walt: Social Justice Revision

Here's the blog post about Social Justice...

Social Justice - the concept of fair and just relations between the individual and society, as

measured by the distribution of wealth, opportunities for personal activity, and social

privileges.

Notions of social justice generally embrace values such as the equal worth of all citizens,their equal right to meet their basic needs, the need to spread opportunity and life chances as widely as possible, and finally, the requirement that we reduce and, where possible, eliminate unjustified inequalities.

If you want to know more about Social Justice, here are first the 3 values;

• Fairness - The quality of treating people equally or in a way that is right or reasonable

• Non-discrimination - To be inclusive, include people

• Inclusiveness - The practice or policy of including people who might otherwise be

excluded or marginalized

Here are also their family words and when they’re not upheld (their opposite);

Fairness;

• Unfair

• Unfairness

• Fairly

Non-discrimination;

• Discriminatory

• Discrimination

• Discriminated

Inclusiveness;

• Excluded

• Exclusiveness

• Non-inclusiveness

Now that we learned what Social Justice is, this next one is called Equality VS Equity and

what’s their differences.

• Equality: Generally refers to equal opportunity and the same levels of support for all

segments of society.

• Equity: Goes a step further and refers offering varying levels of support depending

upon need to achieve greater fairness of outcomes.

Here’s the reason…

The difference between equality and equity must be emphasised. Although both promote

fairness, equality achieves this through treating everyone the same regardless of need, while

equity achieves this through treating people differently depending on need.

Hope you learned this post view and you too can learn a lot more to Social Justice & Equality/Equity!!!
