Questions related to Justice
i am an convicted inmate on the evidence of a confession statement. no other evidence link to the crime. i have not committed the crime. during the state opening address the state at all didn't alert the trial court that it will be tendering evidence of a confession . the herself indicted during judgement that the state had not address the court what evidence of the witness statement constitute whether admission or confession and a trial within a trial was not established to determine the evidence of a confession. therefore the judge herself admitted the evidence as confession without the requirement of section 217(1). see the case of Gama v sate (127/13) [2013]ZASCA 132(27/09/2013). I WAS denied the same treatment by the supreme court of appeal. i have the court records as prove it is on records. any assistance from evidence of confession. Or alternative assistance. our justice system is biased when your a poor person.?
What do we understand about Justice and how much it is related to Legality. ?

In my books on the subject of “mathematics of opinions” I have shown that even positive beginnings (must) end in complete decadence, unless there is a premature end. This is most pronounced in the area of politics, which for various reasons must degenerate into a melting pot of ideologically intellectually limited underachievers.
What is fatal, as can be observed live today, is the complete disconnection from reality: the leaders not only have an ideologically limited horizon of facts, they are also surrounded by a dense cordon of followers who absorb the leaders’ secretions with sexually fervent desire (I have also shown the background to this) and do not allow anything to get to them, i.e. they also effectively shield them from attempts at rational argumentation, which of course has an even greater effect on the ideologization.
On the other hand, the brain is bound to a demand-reward loop: people face challenges that, when mastered, cause a hormonal feeling of happiness (again, more details in “Mathematics of Opinions”). The absence of happiness hormones, in turn, causes people to look for new challenges. A problem arises when there are essentially no more challenges, because any action becomes without consequences.
This is also explained live in today's politics: normally, politicians should have to answer for an action, even if the responsibility only consists in asking themselves “Will I be voted out and can no longer act like this?” Today, the political system has reached a point where this no longer applies. All politicians, starting with the last backbencher in parliament, can do whatever they want without any consequences. A health minister can break laws and even the constitution, prove himself corrupt, send hundreds of thousands of citizens to illness and death and finally declare that all of this was not necessary - and stay in office and can carry on completely arbitrarily. No action has any consequences anymore, except perhaps for the last backbencher who is eliminated in the next round of elections.
Of course, this does not only apply to politics. The people behind it who still have some intelligence, the oligarchs or multi-billionaires who at least partially play their games behind the scenes, are also affected. For someone like Bill Gates, no action has any consequences anymore and the reward of happiness hormones is missing.
Ultimately, this leads to a displacement activity according to the motto "one man's joy is another man's sorrow". What can no longer be achieved through positive experiences of one's own can be achieved through negative experiences of others, for which one is ultimately responsible. The appeal of the matter is that you don't have to feel any consequences yourself, but others do (this is again explained in more detail in the books). This starts with the reporting of critics (even the followers in the justice system are subject to such mechanisms, as they too no longer have to fear any consequences if they ignore the law) and continues all the way to compulsory vaccination. I think it is quite possible that some politician or another has experienced a kind of inner reward orgasm in their uncompromising commitment to compulsory vaccination against the fears of those affected.
Where does it end? Wild conspiracy theories report cruel rituals by the rich and powerful in which women or - as the crowning glory - children are sacrificed. Well, if you think the development described through to the end, these are not conspiracy theories, but for some of those affected it may well end there. The ultimate kick from murdering someone else because something else no longer gives them a kick.
Is that also the background to the current desire for war that prevails everywhere? In Ukraine, the machinations of these people, who preach daily that more and more powerful weapons must be sent there, have probably already cost 1 million human lives, and another million could well be saved by what the Israeli government is doing, also with the help of the local hawks. And these things are not even far away: on social and other networks you can watch videos of people dying there at any time. Does that give you a kick? Or are we all already oversaturated with the virtual reality of the media industry, which can depict blood splattering around and guts hanging from houses in much more colorful ways with the help of AI? Is there really a desire to experience that live? Or is there still so much residual reality that you would rather not experience it yourself, but at least see someone you know personally die?
There is a lot to suggest that the ideological view is becoming increasingly narrow. It seems that the invulnerability of the warmongers leads them to make invulnerability itself an axiom of their thinking, in the sense that a war can destroy everything around them, but not them and their way of life. They seem to believe that they will continue to live in a luxury villa with servants who bring them everything they ask for, when everything around them looks like something out of a Mad Max film. And unfortunately, this virus also seems to be infecting those who are just the bulk of the claqueurs.
The reality: in the EU countries, no one has enough weapons to wage a war for even a few days. No one has a war industry that could provide replacements. The population is anything but ready or willing to fight; they are no longer even willing to work. One might consider the replacement of a private as warlord by a lance corporal as progress, but it is certainly not. The warmongering has no basis in reality, but is nevertheless constantly intensifying. Even if there is no war, it will still lead to hardship and misery. And although this cannot be overlooked, there is still a majority of the population that continues to enthusiastically participate.
As a consequence of current experiences, one view must be corrected: up to now, sociological and psychological models have assumed that a proportion of 25% - 33% of realists is enough to overturn the ideology. Current developments, however, show that an absolute majority, i.e. >50%, is actually necessary for a tipping point. Or, to put it more brutally: if you want peace, you must first kill everyone who wants war.
Faith is core in civilization and has been phenomenal, since the civilization began. Global human and species co- living arrangement has been re-shaped, to suitable arrangements to necessity to global change for the commodity, consuming availabilities and for the manageable living conditions. Mass of Migration took place between continents, therefore, human being are living across the globe 🌎,planet indifferent places.
Human instinct, traditionally said to be there is a six sense, what links to spiritually to the higher power, in another word this is appreciation, being thank for fof the abundance, the earth full of natural consumable production and fresh water for survival.
This is understandably where faith is connected to higher power.
Anyway, faith is meant to be for good teaching, for guidance and for enlightenment. Faith is often abused and used in cruelty and power.
Christianity, wider spread Old established faith, had been abused for power, might exercise for too long and too much in Europe marked deep huge scars led to Europeans mindsets to Secularism, to totally anti religious.
Christianity faith set up in the name Christ son of Mary cannot be bad notion.
The current Canterbury news is not only shame it is grossly disgusting. As such, among the Ethic claiming UK the worlds Law and reformation, Modern evolved Justice and value promoting, diverse loving human, this Art bishop of Canterbury resign case over Abuses abuses , disgraceful.
Jews , there in Israel Zionists had bern abusing Palestinians, and now in open injuring helpless people. There in India the RSS Hindu Nationalists abusing power over, weak Muslims. In Africa too many cruel dictation power running like closed doors to the world.
Muslims in some places rose up with cruel power towards good people. Muslims are worse vastly abused by Muslims namely evils.
Come on power abusers, power abuses come fore opens up before the world and eventually face the justice. The Canterbury has come to facing Justice and the rest will be too, soon.

This research intends to address the inadequacies and gaps in the current legal provisions for victim participation. By bringing these issues to light, the study can inform policy changes and judicial reforms aimed at enhancing victim participation. Recommendations may include legal reforms to ensure victims' rights are protected, training programs for judicial and law enforcement personnel to sensitize them to victims' needs, and the establishment of robust support systems to assist victims throughout the criminal proceedings. Ultimately, strengthening victim participation requires a multifaceted approach that addresses systemic barriers and empowers victims. By focusing on the victim's perspective and recognizing the influence of socio-economic, demographic, and political factors, this research can contribute to creating a more equitable and responsive criminal justice system in India. This shift towards a victim-centered approach not only upholds the principles of justice but also reinforces the integrity and credibility of the judicial process.

What is the position of the International Court of Justice on the request of the Republic of South Africa regarding the crimes in Gaza?
On one hand it seems that being required to report for jury duty is a violation of some kind of civil rights. On the other hand, this is necessary for the present-day justice system to work. How well it works is another discussion for another thread but here I am taking it as given that the present-day justice system is enough reason to justify the need for people to be forced to report for jury duty. There is a special problem for people that cannot easily travel to a required location at a required time. I think that people that are ordered to report should be provided with transportation. How do I help to make that happen? Do I write to a congress person? Do I sign some kind of petition that already exists?
With the war in Russia -ukrania,Gaza and what is being happened in many positions in the world ,is there any justice for human rights and to solve all international crises to prevent third world war,Are we moving to rights for poors,epidemics and nulcera threats ?
Liberalism is a highly hegemonic and maybe all encompassing force that stems from God as humans would NOT have the ability to reason to implement social justice WITHOUT The Holy Trinity.
Probably no one will award me a PhD by publication, HOWEVER, my work on ResearchGate is SO original that someone, to END SCIENTIFIC STAGNATION, should. The fact so many of my works BEGIN with metaphysics DEMONSTRATES ORIGINALITY. I am widening the otherwise narrow field of scientific research. References:

Who agrees the uniqueness of each entity suggests both an all knowing and all powerful creator and against reincarnation? Elaborations welcome.
My answer: I agree the uniqueness of each entity suggests both an all knowing and all powerful creator and against reincarnation. My elaboration: an all knowing and all powerful creator could make each entity unique without an identifiable arche. The uniqueness of each being suggests no being shares spirits, thus not supporting reincarnation. Plus, the lack of absolutes suggests no guiding force exists to guide reincarnation. Thus, the most likely afterlife is a Universalist Christian Heaven. Source:
How do we handle the legal dilemma of victims being injured to the extent of not being able to advocate for their own justice? An example could be victims receiving brain damage as the result of violent crimes and not being able to advocate for their own justice until the statutes of limitations have passed.
- Do you agree with me that researchers and academics should spread the spirit of love and peace and reject violence and hatred through their academic and research work in educating the new generation so that peace may prevail in all parts of the world and achieve sustainable development, justice and equality?
Senior academic leaders face difficulties implementing BAJEDI (belonging, accessibility, justice, equity, diversity, and inclusivity) policies in higher education despite societal pressure for equity. The significant influence of academic institutions on society's future is marked by persistent diversity policy failures, with racism often being an overlooked cause. More research is imperative to comprehend these implementation challenges, particularly considering systemic structures, communication, and marginalized voices within toxic environments. But in the interim, scientists of color (students, staff, faculty, etc) continue to be adversely affected by the impact of racism.

Artificial Intelligence in Petroleum Engineering
1. Whether AI alone - would be able to mimic a real oil/gas field production scenario - in the absence of reservoir simulation?
2. What would be the various sources of 'uncertainty' that would be associated with an AI technique?
3. How would AI consider
‘measurement uncertainties’ (errors in measurement of state variables associated with reservoir rock properties and rock-fluid interaction properties)
as well as
‘structural uncertainties’ (errors associated with the mathematical representation of actual draining principles of hydrocarbons)
"explicitly";
along with
‘parametric uncertainty’ (resulting from the coupled effect of both measurement as well as structural uncertainties)?
4. How would AI do justice – particularly with the very limited data set associated with ‘reservoir permeability’?
5. Whether AI would reasonably support a hydrocarbon reservoir with a sparse, heterogeneous, anisotropic, multi-phase, multi-dimensional data?
6. Whether AI would be supplied with the best ever algorithms for coping with all kinds of uncertainties – by explicitly segregating the various forms of uncertainties by an efficient data training?
7. Whether AI-powered robots will be able to detect the oil seeps (in deep sea) efficiently by mitigating the exploration risk while lessening the harms to marine life?
8. Whether AI has the ability to forecast ‘well collapses’ – well before its occurrence?
To what extent, ‘downtime’ would be expected to be reduced - upon introducing ‘traffic light system’?
9. To what extent, the concept of ‘digital twins’ remains efficient in addressing the challenges associated with the hydrocarbon industry?
10. To what extent, AI would remain helpful – by efficiently recognizing patterns through deep learning – towards averting the catastrophes associated with HSE?

Oliver Wendel Holmes believed that justice had to do with customs that vary from one society to another, relativistic and without a foundation as an overarching principle. Marxist believe that justice served as a means of oppression by those in power. Postmodernists don't believe in anything, much less justice. Is there simply relativistic conventions and power that dictate what is meant by justice in our legal system?
I am exploring the development of the idea that morality or justice for the state is different from morality or justice for the individual, as it appears for example in the work of Machiavelli. I thought I would find this quotation in the Melian dialogue, which makes that kind of point, but I couldn't find the particular quotation I was looking for. I recall that it is a quotation that the ancient historian Geoffrey de Ste Croix attached much significance to. Can anyone help please by providing the reference in Thucydides?
Hi academics, I am looking for a journal that accepts papers on qualitative textual and multimodal discourse analysis of digital game dialogues. Discussion is related to social (and eco-)justice. Any recommendations? #linguistics #DigitalGames
It has been stated that a discussion of global urbanism that situates the city at the core of the planet’s future will provide pathways for evidence-based interventions to ensure ambitious positive environmental changes. Using ideas and examples from the Wray and Miller textbooks, reflect on the role of equity, inclusion and justice in city planning.
For my research studies on organizational justice (interactional) I am trying to find measurement scale for assessing the influence of justice recipients (organizational justice) on a managers' justice actions. In addition to a manager's characteristics and situational influence (which effect justice actions), there is another observation which claim that managers' justice actions are shaped by attributes of the justice recipients themselves, and that managers' justice actions are shaped by the behavior, personality and trustworthiness of recipients (Bobocel, 2021, Koopman et al., 2015, Huang et al., 2017, Zhao et al., 2015). This implies that employees have the power to shape managers' justice action, historically justice was something that employees received and responded (attitudes and behavior), recent studies indicate that they are not merely receivers and have upward influence in the process (Bobocel, 2021). To explore this aspect I am looking for any measurement scale available to assess the influence of recipients.
Transformation, unlike resolution, restoration, management, reform, or revolution addresses very distinctive issues that these other approaches to conflict and justice do not. Transformative justice challenges all aspects of authoritarianism, domination, and control within society today. For this reason, transformative justice is more than an alternative to a criminal justice system, but a social justice philosophy for peace with tools to achieve such goals. Further, it is a non-dogmatic, process-based philosophy that allows for creative approaches in transforming conflict and addressing issues of brutality, racism, assault, abuse, accountability, responsibility, loss and, most importantly, healing.—A.

Actually it is hypothesis of a research paper: The positive relationship between ethical leadership and group learning behavior is partially mediated by justice climate and peer justice, respectively.
But from result, justice climate was not significantly related to

Dear All
what is your opinion about this article ?
Thanks
Righteousness and Justice are common buzzwords often used interchangeably that we use in the present data-driven world and without knowing what exactly it mean. The current world has Courts of Justice as part of the legal system. As many or most use the said terms inappropriately and in a meaningless way, and being even the most bright scholars and pundits have only vague ideas about it, let us have a discussion about "What is Righteousness? and how it differ from Justice?", to bring out the real meaning of "Righteousness" and to bring about a righteous society.
I am looking for articles related to love marriage among girls, especially in Bangladesh and South Asian perspectives. Any suggestions, please.
Much has been written about justice. However, to the best of my knowledge, there are hardly any careful analyses of the meaning(s) of 'justice' to date. Do you know of any philosophers that have presented such an analysis?
I am exploring support on a research design that links climate justice, gender, and sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR). Research experience based on developing country context will be helpful. Please do provide any theoretical and conceptual models that link gender, climate justice, and SRHR.
Background:
That in observed instances and Perception of Corruption index reports, Police have detained motorists or coerced them into parting with bribes. That in many countries, Police lack the necessary tools for on-the-spot inspection and preservation of evidence e.g cameras or online mobile devices. That even when the Police cause a vehicle to be driven to Police stations, the Police stations lack the necessary equipment to provide Inspection as anticipated in respective Traffic Acts. That on matters Traffic, the Police stations become centers of extortion, frustration and inconvenience as opposed to service and facilitation for the benefit of motorists. That in many countries, there is no tracking of how many stops and inspections Police conduct in their daily routine thus leaving room for abuse of these random checks and stops.
This project seeks to establish the circumstances that lead to the lack of transparency in Traffic policing activities

On White Supremacy:
The obsession as to whether human-kind is fundamentally bad or good has preoccupied scholars for millennia. This can be traced back to the Catholic theologian, Augustine (354-430), who believed that men and women are basically bad, all born into original sin, and therefore require close supervision by which to cleanse their souls. In the enlightened age, intellectuals such as Rousseau (1712-1778) came up with the counter argument defending the premise that human-kind is basically good, an ethos that has been adopted by many liberal societies of today even if only by lip-service. We know that if one wants an economy that is maximally uncreative and unproductive, totalitarianism (left or right driven) is the best political system by which to achieve this. Here a minority of the population under its leadership employs all the state’s resources to control the majority under the assumption that the majority has ‘bad habits’ that must be altered and if not possible contained using police-state tactics. Such a society is unsustainable, as we witnessed with the disintegration of the Soviet Union in December 1991.
So, what about White Supremacy. This viewpoint has a long history in the United State going back to the age of slavery [1620 to 1865] when Black people (including their children) were sold and killed like cattle. At its zenith in 1860, some 13% of the US population, 4 million people of a population of 31 million, were enslaved. Shortly after the passage of the 13th Amendment (which was meant to end slavery in 1865) segments of the White population resisted this policy by forming the Ku Klux Klan who adopted an Augustine-viewpoint that led to the mass lynching of mainly Black males that continued well into the mid-20th Century. According to the Equal Justice Initiative (2017), 4084 African-Americans were lynched between 1877 and 1950, mainly in the Southern United States. In the 1960’s three acts were passed by Congress to remedy this bad history: the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Voting Rights Act of 1965, and the Civil Rights Act of 1968.
Now let us fast forward to the Age of Trump (2016-2020). Donald Trump, an Independent, became a Republican so that he could win the presidential election in November 2016. His madness, which includes racism, bigotry, and contempt for women, is expressed regularly via Twitter and Fox News. This madness has now been amplified by the recent killing of an African American man, George Floyd, who was caught on camera being suffocated by a Minneapolis police officer. With Christian Bible in hand and in front of St. Johns church in Washington DC, Trump declared (much like Hitler did during his rallies in the 30 and 40’s) that he would impose law and order on the masses who are protesting the killing of George Floyd. So far, 10,000 protesters have been arrested by police (Aljazeera, June 4, 2020). The ~ 25,000 White Supremacist of America are standing by to see whether Trump can create an opportunity for them to return America to its roots: by having a large segment of the population (mainly immigrant and non-White) be put under the control of a White minority to satisfy (unbeknown to them) the dictates of the Catholic theologian, Augustine (354-430). If you believe in humanity and its sustainability, you can never allow this to happen since this is a recipe to continuous warfare, much like what goes on in the Middle East today.
Hi!
I just would like to crowdsource as to who among you are into occupational justice practice--may it be in clinical practice, education, and/or research. I am just wondering how OTs around the world are bridging OJ constructs in OT practice. Will be happy if you can share bits of your experience so we can have a conversation about this very important topic. Let's start this discourse!

The UK has been having out of court, and therefore, accessible justice towards insolvency. There are many reasons that people end up as individuals, having to take this drastic action. Examples could include death in the family, serious illness, job losses and others. We wish to establish what are the main causes identified to date in their diversity?
Answers will be appreciated from both personal experience and from witnessing those from others.
The Tigris - Euphrates water conflict is frozen conflict between three riparians (Iraq, Syria and Turkey). The conflict came up because of upstream water projects by Turkey and therefore the restriction of water access to individuals of downstream failed states (Iraq and Syria). There are two principles are conflicting: Territorial sovereignty of Turkey and human right to water of individuals (This is issue of global justice and not international justice due to failed states). My question is: whom belongs water and how property (connected with territory) theory of Locke can be connected to the sovereignty principle of Turkey?
Thank you beforehand
In addition to the severe implications for public health, COVID-19 has imposed a significant challenge on the access to justice. Restricted access to the judicial system has increased vulnerabilities to already vulnerable groups and communities. This has raised a serious concern on ensuring speedy access to justice.
Some experts have suggested to accelerate digitalisation in the administration of justice and have put forward ideas of ‘smart courts’. This means e-mediation, e-arbitration and online courts procedures. It might be possible in some jurisdictions but in many jurisdictions courts and judicial systems are often obstructed by series of institutional challenges. How can they create and manage ‘smart court’?
Truly the light of darkness and the road to justice.
What do you think about the truth?
Study shows that while the plastic production and consumption just began in the 1950s, the 24 million to 34 million tonnes of plastic waste in 2020 are entering the world’s lakes, rivers and oceans. US$296 billion in subsidies provided annually by governments to petrochemical companies and introducing laws that require companies to pay for waste collection, recycling or disposal, rather than taxpayers.

How can we move forward?
What is the decolonial process?
How to reclaim justice and equity?
How to enforce corporate business responsibility?
How to enforce governmental responsibility?
A lot of global and local university rankings based on various factors are very frequently made available to the scientific community. what is your objective assessment about the credibility and justice of such rankings? thank you.
I would argue that FOX New is an example of Edmond Burke (an Originalist from England) on steroids. The late founder of FOX News, Roger Eugene Ailes, surrounded himself with tall, blue-eyed, full-lipped, blonde bombshells who submitted to his every wish (for advancement of course) so that he could be transported back to the fifties as he reached climax in his office chair (all permitted by his loyal wife). But of course, this is not new. Bill Clinton and his enabling wife, Hillary, institutionalized this behavior in the White House under a modernist agenda—as the conservative speaker of the House Newt Gingrich convinced Bill that there were too many idle Black Folks ripping off the White Tax-Paying People of America, a class who was handsomely bailed-out in 2008. To add to the Originalism of FOX News, there is the occasional ‘Jim Crow’ on display pontificating (in black face) about the virtues of the Free Markets in the way wealth trickles down to the underclass so that the hungriest can end up on FOX News collecting a 7-figures salary. Many of these black faces try to convince us that there has been more than enough change to the Constitution to deal with all the inequities and for those who complain about injustice, such as the Black Lives Matter movement, they lack initiative, suffering from a disease called laziness, a choice they made soon after they were born. This lack of initiative can be seen when one walks down Main Street in Houston Texas to observe black folk on all fours eating out of a bowl filled with McDonalds food-scraps or black folk coiled on a tram flatform with matted hair and backside exposed rolling around in circles like a serpent that has sustained vestibular damage. You would never know that the Mayor of Main Street is a modernist Black Democrat, who has been described by some as, ‘He left the Hood never looking back for he is intent in separating himself from his race but he insists on being a role model to his people on voting day.’ When a black fellow recently expressed his reason for not voting ‘there is no one in power who supports my interests’, I assured him that the Biden/Harris ticket would begin to right many of the wrongs of the past. He remained incredulous for he understands that FOX News is more the norm than the exception here in America. Some would say that after Lincoln amended the Constitution there has been little change in race relations for many Black folks still feel as though they are three-fifths white as specified in the ‘original’ Constitution of 1787.
I'm particularly concerned with the need to allow post-conflict societies to charter their own meanings and solutions rather then being given conceptual templates (of reconciliation and justice) imported from other contexts. Do these imported templates not hinder meaningful self-actualisation of these societies, by giving them concepts they cannot process to meaningfully transform their structures and systems? Added to that is the aspect of identity, that only within the context of self-generated meanings which the people have grappled with can they reach amicable solutions regarding the way forward. The question is focused on Namibia and South Africa, post-apartheid.
Hello everyone,
I am working on a project to find out how teachers contribute to social justice and equity in schools. Therefore, I am interested in to what extent teachers are prepared to respond the diverse needs of students in the same classroom. How teacher preparation programs should guide beginning teachers so that they will be adaptive teachers to promote equity and justice among all learners?
I appreciate any related suggestions and articles that will facilitate my research about preparing socially just teachers.
Query for Academics and #PhD's! What are some of the most provocative or 'necessary texts' you have read crossing the topics of intersectional and posthumanist interpretations of justice? Which ones changed the way you thought about justice?
I'm writing a book that raises questions about the traditional meanings of justice and injustice.
How do we even remove the notion that animals are lesser beings than humans?
Abstract. Many empirical studies on urban environmental justice have focused on the unequal distribution of exposure to environmental goods and bads. While this work is important to unveil patterns of socio-ecological disparity, environmental justice theories have long called for a wider interpretation, including notions of justice based in recognition and participation, and a stronger link with broader social and spatial justice concerns. This particularly applies to environmentally motivated policies that inadvertently affect other social, economic or cultural aspects of urban life. Thus, our answers to environmental inequalities should always be seen in relation with other justice issues (e.g. with regard to transport, housing, employment, local amenities), include fair means for participation and respect the variable needs of different communities.
In this session, we want to expand urban environmental justice research in fruitful and innovative ways, by exploring multiple meanings of environmental justice, how they link to other fairness issues in specific places and situations, and how these concepts are mobilised and interpreted by different stakeholders.

We see that the establishment of international relations as a discipline and theoretical autonomy is possible by going beyond the main themes of peace and war. Can we say that the continuation of international relations as a discipline in the future will depend on the ability to go beyond the main themes and emphasize the elements such as environment, justice and health?
How it will help and ensure the poor has access to justice as the equal gender with equal rights and respect in the society or he/she has been heard? In each society the availability of the people rights is conditional to their hearing and counting for their lawful rights thus the more we provide the poor the access to justice the more we ensure the deprived has been assured to have his/her rights.But it is least heard and the commons are almost denied to be heard and counted because of lack of communications with the policy makers and the implementer.Thus the nations and the societies need some easy mechanism to establish such a culture to ensure the majority the happiness and the sustainability and prosperity.
I am trying to sketch a new project aiming to question the problematic relationship between justice and law in philosophical/political terms. Many political theorists since the time of Plato have wrestled with the problem of whether justice is part of law or is simply a moral judgment about law. Many scholars on the subject has either concluded that justice is only a judgment about law or has offered no reason to support a conclusion that justice is somehow part of law. In my point of view, justice shouldn’t be conceived as an inherent component of the law, I am rather interested in the disconnection of law and justice to the extent that this disconnection bears the concept of politics itself both in positive and negative terms.
I believe that your intriguing answers and guidance will breed a very fruitful discussion.
Hi dear scholars
Many scholars claim that the best criterion for distributional justice is based on deservedness.
But further philosophical contents show that deservedness has some shortcomings in it's evaluation of proportional rule between the activities as base of deservedness and the things being defined as rewards.
Furthermore, besides person's efforts and practical capabilities in work, there are other factors defining the whole consequences of actions in market; such as supply and demand and competition in market.
I want to know whether there are some philosophical solutions in this regard or not.
Thanks for your attention and contribution;

Our Transport Justice report -- first effort -- is just coming out and has opened up quite a bit of new areas of interest, from both a theoretical and a practical point of view... We're happy to share and compare if you are interested. lsagaris@uc.cl Best to all. L
This project will be based on gender and organisational justice in Pakistani context.
I am conducting a study on the function of mob justice in a municipality in Ghana. The population is the entire adult population of about 69000 residing in 31 enumeration areas (EAs). I do not know how many people are in each of the EAs. I only know the total. What processes are best for me to select a representative sample and how do I go about it? Thank you.

I think liberty can't stand with equity and justice , I'm also not sure with that . But if liberty does, can Marx realize the society with all of liberty and equity and justice ? Does he mention that in his production?

I am trying to put a proposal together for Uni that investigates whether schema modes differ between those with ASPD and those with ASPD + Psychopathy (or psychopathic traits) to inform clinical therapy for justice involved individuals.
Large-scale energy projects (dams, solar, wind, coal, etc.) have been documented to negatively affect local communities. However, local communities rarely voice their concerns. In fact, more often than not, local people think (imagine) that such projects will bring money, business opportunities and, thus, development. I understand that there is a clear link between sociotechnical imaginaries and energy justice, but was not able to find any literature on it. Would anyone be able to explain the link and point me to the existing literature (if any)?
I am planning to conduct a research on victims of IPV using a grounded theory method. I will also be mapping the stakeholders using in getting justice in IPV using grounded theory method. That is , i'll map the stakeholders with the help of victim survivors of IPV and interview them as well. But if i proceeded with theoretical sampling with stakeholders, the research project will get elongated beyond my reach. SO is it possible to mix theoretical sampling with victims of IPV and then proceed with other methods with the stakeholders?
I am a big fan of open access (OA). I find it the most morally acceptable way of publishing while at the same time ensuring quality control. Nowadays, the internet is full of shitty predatory journals that offer OA. Currently, I am in the process of writing an article with an energy justice focus and I am looking for suggestions where to best submit the article. Thanks in advance!
What is your vision about the justice of the citation?
As it is possible to publish articles in some scientific fields, where there is no many scientific works because of the lack of scientists specialised in these areas, and thus these research will get low citation rates.
is this considered fair for these researches?
Someone, many many years ago wrote:
"[T]he temporal lords are supposed to govern lands and people outwardly. This they leave undone. They can do no more than strip and fleece, heap tax upon tax and tribute upon tribute, letting loose here a bear and there a wolf. Besides this, there is no justice, integrity, or truth to be found among them. They behave worse than any thief or scoundrel, and their temporal rule has sunk quite as low as that of the spiritual tyrants. . . . " (M.L.)
Our life is full of events and attitudes, may be positive and joyous, and may be negative and painful, do you think it is justice and fate or it is purely coincidental or it is the laws of nature imposed on us all opinions and answers are welcome with appreciation for all
Recent strike in Tamilnadu and it's slavery.
When the civil servants announce the fight, the public community is split into two, criticizing a faction of the state and continuing to blame the other fugitives. The contradiction is that there is truth in the argument being taken on both sides. But what is not considered in these affairs is the lack of understanding we have in government, power and rights.
First of all, our interest in government work is not as pertaining to the likelihood of luxury as we think. It came with a dreamer of authority on it. The social acceptance of it and the source of its existence comes through the longing. A computer engineer who earns three lakh rupees a month may be more than double the monthly salary of a District Collector. But when it comes to power, a software maker is not in any way indifferent.
This is exactly the same as that of all stakeholders. A private sweeping government is not the one to blaze. On the same basis, a government school teacher and a private school teacher are not one.
Here, the main question that the general public should ask is whether we know the difference between the state and the government servant. Today, Girija Vaidyanathan has thrown temporary employees of the temporary staff involved in the struggle. What does this mean? Who is the state here? What is a fighting party or a disadvantage of them? Both are the same.
Because this is a power hierarchy. That is the state's operating system. From top to bottom is its operating system. A decision-making party and another party to execute it. When the two sides come into conflict, the decision-making party holds the power that it holds.
This is the most precise place where the general community fails. The reason is that the people who face the public society are always the same as the implementing party. They are more than ninety percent of the state party. Furthermore, there is the assumption that the state of employment is a work that has the power over others. That's wrong.
The state job is, on the contrary, the condition of direct slavery. But it creates a tricky equation to keep them from leaving. However, if a person who delivers himself to slavery, he will be allowed to reproach one another. If he is not given such an opportunity, he can not maintain the balance of the state apparatus. The state machine can not function.
That is why we see that power in the specific organs of the state, wherever the power accumulates, has the power to act as the same as its extension. An example is the military, police and judiciary. A police constable and another government office guard is not one. But if the environment to be subordinate to his superiors, a Phoenix is in a better position than a police constable. The slavery of our Justice Department, which teaches justice to the world, can not say words.
Thus, the state is a machine that operates with its specific arrangements with a specific violence. Each spare part collectively ensures that the machine is functioning through its work. So we have to understand that in the real sense. From there we can understand the justification of a struggle or its injustice.
In this background we will try to understand the struggle of government employees, including the "teachers" of now. In the struggle now, government teachers are only a part. More and more government employees are fighting. But why do only the authors look to the critics of the critics?
Teacher work is a luxury "public intellect". Even if it is somewhat loyal. Twenty years ago, the teaching work was understood as "charity and dedication". The minimum wage was given to the work. The teacher was satisfied with the social status of the post, rather than the salary of a teacher.
Only ninety years later, significant payments began to occur in their salaries. This does not mean that governments began to show concern for them. On the contrary, when the states begin to quit his responsibility to provide education, it is realistic that the construction of a magic of higher wages is built upon teachers. The preparations for the teachers' salaries, the governments escaped from their responsibility.
Only after the dedication to the new economic policy, the meaning of education is changed. Education principles changed as the basis for the education of knowledge, anthropology, equality and "preparing for competition." The market for education here was created by the government's policy. That's the market.
The teacher John Taylor Gatto was selected New York State's Teacher of the Year in 1991. He argues that: "Children learn what they live" (Ayers 2004, p. 37). He claimed that schools of today are not living up to their potentials. What is you opinion on this: How can schools become living society's that generate citizenship and confidence in the children's own abilities?

Realistically speaking I have not found proper leadership who can take India towards progress and development. Power has been misused maximum times we have not seen any major change taking place in India. When elections are very near then political leaders may have different slogans and agendas for development. However, when these leaders get power to rule they mostly failed then people of India wait for next regime but they have again similar experience. When would be that time when people of India will not be misguided in the name of religion, caste, community, language, gender and region. When would be that day when people of India give power to those who are able and who believe in real change. I believe still people are fighting on petty issues including political leadership have similar attributes. When would be that day when India will be free from scams
