Justice. Rainbolt, G. W. In International Encyclopedia of Ethics, pages 1–14. American Cancer Society, 2017. ![Justice [link]](https://bibbase.org/img/filetypes/link.svg "link")
Paper doi abstract bibtex Justice has been a central concern of philosophy from the time of Plato until today. The scope of justice is vast, covering, for example, compensatory justice, criminal justice, global distributive justice, international criminal justice, just war theory, and juvenile justice. In addition, many different kinds of things can be just: decisions, thoughts, actions, people, rules, institutions, etc. In some contexts, “justice” refers to lawfulness. As Aristotle notes, there is a broad sense of “justice” in which it is equivalent to “moral.” On a narrower usage, “justice” is a particular moral virtue, the virtue of giving a thing its due. On this usage, justice is distinct from such virtues as generosity, honesty, and humility. This essay focuses on the nature of a just society. Perhaps the central debate about the just society concerns distributive justice, justice in the distribution of a society's goods, which include money and physical objects as well as intellectual abilities, rights, obligations, and opportunities.
