Social justice is defined in many different ways depending on the entity that is making the
definition. The entity making the definition defines it from the way they perceive the world. For the
purposes of this writing assignment, social justice will be defined as conforming to the natural law
that all persons irrespective of ethnic origin, gender, possessions, race, religion etc., are to be treated equally and without prejudice. Social justice also imposes on each member of society personal
responsibility to work with others to design and continually perfect our institutions as tools for
personal and social development.
