Capitalism and Social Justice

Capitalism is an economic system where private individuals or businesses own and control resources and production, aiming for profit through competition. Social justice advocates for fair access to resources, opportunities, and rights for all individuals, addressing inequalities based on race, gender, or socioeconomic status. The relationship between the two can be complex; capitalism can generate wealth but may also lead to disparities. Balancing capitalism with social justice involves ensuring that economic growth benefits everyone and that basic rights and opportunities are upheld for marginalized groups, promoting a more equitable society.
