What Is Social Justice?

Social justice is a contested term and concept. Brooks (2008) notes that, ‘Justice is both an abstract “big” idea and also a concrete “little” idea’ (p. 8). Furthermore, as Turhan (2010), points out, ‘[I]t is not a thing or specific structure to be reified, defined, reduced, observed and replicated. Rather, it may be understood more usefully as a process, or a way of “ethical living” in a diverse society’ (Furman and Shields 2003, p. 1358). Social justice however may be viewed as a principle and a guide underlining how humans should live and treat each other as members of a society (Rebore 2001), or as a negotiation about process and relationships and not only about outcomes (Speight and Vera 2004).
