What are the differences between Justice and Fairness?
Justice means giving each person what he or she deserves or, in more traditional terms, giving each person his or her due. Justice and fairness are closely related terms that are often today used interchangeably. There have, however, also been more distinct understandings of the two terms. While justice usually has been used with reference to a standard of rightness, fairness often has been used with regard to an ability to judge without reference to one's feelings or interests.
Justice sources we will be reviewing in this site,
We will be exploring the Injustice themes of To Kill a Mockingbird written by Harper Lee, and also the Bali 9 trial and execution, while my Opinion article focuses on Child abuse in war torn countries mainly focusing on Afghanistan and its laws, that allow pedophiles to walk away with no consequences.
Is Justice ever really achievable?
To answer this topic you must try and understand see both two sides of each others point of view. an example a situation where a man was speeding in a school zone due to his wife in the back seat in labor. Now the man has no choice but to pull over with a cop behind him and get a ticket. When seeing the woman in the back, the cop allows him to be on his way. However, after all is said and done, the man still has a ticket. Is this just? Yes, he was speeding in a school zone which is against the law. However when looking at it in a different perspective how does that make sense? He had to get his wife to the hospital for his baby. Many of you would see this as just and fair, however others would find this a danger as it is legally a 'school area', no exceptions, you must answer that in the test before you get your license and the amount of lives that could have been endangered is unacceptable, is that morally justified?
