C. Abstraction/Generalization
Social justice is about equality and fairness in the treatment of human beings, access to resources,
and life chances. Its main goal is to reduce or eliminate the problems posed by poverty, inequality,
predatory capitalism, occupational injustice, and climate change injustice. These problems impede
human beings’ attainment for a long, happy, and fulfilled life. There is no standard formula in
addressing such problems, but there are different social justice theories that can guide us in creating
strategies that can reduce or eliminate them.
