Humanities Homework Help

Our texts and discussions have covered a wide array of subjects from the socially constructed notion of gender to racial justice. Each of our texts takes a relatively unique position on the idea of “justice,” generally rooted in each author’s individual, subjective experience.

Your task as a writer is to explore the mechanism by which the idea of justice is constructed. Is “justice” a relative term, or is there a specific, objective way to define it? Using our readings1 from the “Justice” module as evidence, respond to the following prompt.

Prompt:

What does “justice” mean? Do people really have fundamentally different views of justice? Is our definition of “justice” itself a purely human/social construct?
