Esteem and the virtue of “justice”
Posted by Cecilia under: Philosophy .
Justice, the second of the four cardinal virtues is another important foundation for humane society. When we encounter injustice we discover that it diminishes our happiness and motivation to be fair ourselves.
Somebody who measures right and wrong is considered to serve justice.
Whoever we are, whatever we do, we wish to be treated equally.
Esteem makes us realize that everybody is equal with regard to receiving esteem.
Esteem and justice are mutually dependent. With justice esteem can be realized and with esteem people act just.
One Comment so far...
