The overall objective is to create a fair and equal society in which each individual matters, their rights are recognised and protected, and decisions are made in ways that are fair and honest. This is an underlying principle for peaceful and prosperous coexistence within and among nations. The principles are used when we promote gender equality or the rights of indigenous peoples and migrants. It also includes the removal of barriers that people face because of gender, age, race, ethnicity, religion, culture or disability. Social Justice is the fair and just relation between the individual and society. It includes items covering the distribution of wealth, opportunities for people and social privileges. The concept of Social Justice seems to be a balance between the need to do your part within society in order to receive anything from society. The connections between status and distributive equality stabilize a conception of an overlapping normative domain of human rights and social justice as nested regulative principles for associative practices and institutions which function to protect against exclusions from status equality. This important book is essential reading for practitioners and students of sociology, criminology, gender studies and law.
