Distributive Justice Principles

Distributive justice principles guide how resources, opportunities, and rewards should be fairly allocated within a society. These principles aim to ensure fairness by considering different factors: some suggest resources should be distributed based on need, so those who need more receive more; others emphasize equality, giving everyone the same share; and some focus on merit, rewarding individuals based on effort or achievement. The goal is to create a just system where everyone is treated fairly, balancing individual contributions, needs, and fairness to promote social harmony and equity.
