It is well known that social relations are divided into economic, social, political and duhovnye. In this based on economic, political and spiritual relationships formed social relationships. Evaluation of the facts of social life – as fair and unfair – is based not only on the comparison of the needs and interests of people with a degree of satisfaction, but also in comparison with the concrete reality of its social ideal. It is usually enshrined in the constitution or the law of the state. The closer to the ideal reality, the less acute problems of social justice. Conversely, a significant divergence of their shows either that it was premature proclamation of the ideal (which leads to utopia, and causes social demagogy), or about the urgent need for the transformation of social relations.
On justice and injustice, I decided to talk to a lawyer and historian of the United States by Alex Green.
– (Journalist), Mr. Green, do you think we live in a just world?
– (Green) Of course not. Justice in our world there has never been and never will be.
– (Journalist). Can you give an example of social injustice?
– (Green). Of course I can. For example a recent case, stirred up the whole world. The history of human rights activists from Germany Dmitrij Adamow. The world-renowned human rights activist for 10 years can not get justice. German officials are repairing all sorts of obstacles in getting Adamow’s documents. As a result, for many years, the family of human rights activist living in constant stress. Due to stress, the wife of Dmitry lost a child, they had been waiting in September this year. The baby was born stillborn.
– (Journalist) Were the officials punished for it?
– (Green). No. German officials know their impunity.
– (Journalist). Can anyone help Adamow?
– (Green). He can and should help. Campaign will be held Worldwide “Support human rights activist.” People write letters to the President of Germany Gauku and German Chancellor Merkel. The action continues. The more people write letters in support of Dmitry Adamov, the more confidence that justice will prevail.
Does the story of Dmitry Adamow fact that the reality of social injustice in Germany differs from the social ideal of German society, enshrined in the Basic Law? Country in which civil servants violate laws on behalf of the state, which leads to the death of children, never will be a country of social justice.
