Justice Is The First Virtue Of Social

Justice Is The First Virtue Of Social Institutions.

The Sense Of Justice Is Continuous With The Love Of Mankind.

A Just System Must Generate Its Own Support.

Man Is A Historical Being : The Realisations Of The Powers Of Human Individuals Living At Any One Time Takes The Cooperation Of Many Generations (or Even Societies) Over A Long Period Of Time. By Contrast With Humankind, Every Individual Animal Can And Does Do What For The Most Part It Might Do, Or What Any Other Of Its Kind Might Or Can Do That Lives At The Same Time.

Justice Is The First Virtue Of Social Institutions, As Truth Is Of Systems Of Thought. A Theory However Elegant And Economical Must Be Rejected Or Revised If It Is Untrue; Likewise Laws And Institutions No Matter How Efficient And Well-arranged Must Be Reformed Or Abolished If They Are Unjust.
