16. REPORT (Hashim Abro)
Naya Pakistan remains the same
Injustice and Inequality have become synonymous us with our society. In the past
there was no one to hear or raise the voice on behalf of the oppressed. And that
situation even in. I personally know several talented boys and girls going from
pillar to post in search of a suitable job. I know that in many parts of the country
poor labourers are not paid immediately and growers are not given the
adequate rate for their crop products.
Looking at the protocol, pomp and show of many in power positions, it
becomes obvious that they are not used to living in material modesty. We all believe
that the

22. 1. Income Inequality
■ Income inequality is the extent to which income is distributed
unevenly in a group of people.
■ Income is not just the money received through pay, but all the
money received from employment.
23. 2. Pay Inequality
■ A person’s pay is different to their income.
■ Pay refers to payment from employment only.
■ This can be on an hourly, monthly or annual
basis.
24. 3. Wealth Inequality
■ Wealth refers to the total amount of assets of an
individual or household.
■ This may include financial assets.
26. (1) Wages are determined by labor market
■ Wages are a function of the market price of skills
required for a job.
■ In a free market, the “market price of a skill” is
determined by market demand and market supply.
27. (2) Personal factors
■ It is generally believed that innate abilities play a
part in determining the wealth of an individual.
■ For example, more determined individuals may
keep improving themselves and striving for better
achievements, which justifies a higher wage.
28. (3) Education affects wages
■ Individuals with different levels of education often
earn different wages.
■ The impact of education on economic inequality is still
profound in developed countries and cities.
■ For example ,in Hong Kong, 12 years of free
education are provided for each citizen.
29. (4) Growth in technology widens
income gap
■ Growth in technology arguably renders joblessness
at all skill levels.
■ In many jobs, such as packaging and
manufacturing, machinery works even more effectively
and efficiently. Hence, jobs involving repetitive tasks
have largely been eliminated.
30. POLICIES TO REDUCE ECONOMIC
INEQUALITY
1. Improve job quality and strengthen families by
raising the minimum wage.
2. Ensure that workers with disabilities have a fair shot
at employment and economic security.
3. Correct political imbalances.
4. Expand opportunities for current and future
workers.
31. 5. Provide better oversight of financial markets.
6. Create jobs through targeted employment programs
and public investments in infrastructure.
7. Build assets for working families.
8. Invest in education.
9. Help low-income youth and adult’s access employment
and training opportunities that lead to economic success.
33. Basic principle of Social Justice
Equity
■ Equity is different to equality though the two are often thought to
be the same.
■ The aim of equity is to achieve equality in outcome not in the
method to achieve it.
■ In other words equity in health promotion is about enabling
EVERYONE to achieve health, not just specific groups.
■ Medicare is another example. It was brought in to provide
everyone with access to specific health care providers.
34. Access
“People have a right to form any community of their choice.”
■ It grants each mind the right to achieve in concert with others of similar beliefs
their own community in the New World. That is, each could found and try his
own utopia.
■ Equalitarians, anarchists, Buddhists, Hindus, democrats, capitalists,
monarchists, and all combinations and refinements could set up with kindred
spirits their own lifestyle, culture, society, politics.
35. Participation
■ Participation in the context of social justice means involving
people in the decisions that govern their lives.
More specifically, the rationale for public participation is twofold:
achieving better distributive outcomes
strengthening democracy.
In this second respect, the notion of participation is linked to
power.
36. Rights
■ As a key principle of social justice, rights can be subdivided
into
legal rights
moral rights
37. Characteristics of social justice
Racism
■ Racism, is the lack of “fair” treatment of racial groups designated as “other” in
the society.
■ Consequently, when racism becomes institutionalized in a society, social
justice is compromised.
■ Social justice and injustice with respect to race and the processes by which
they are achieved are considered through examples of inequality in three
types of justice.
38. Ageism
■ On Thursday, May 23rd, the Radical Age Movement (RA), with
over 30 partners in Union Square.
■ RA and its rally partners have launched a campaign to change
exactly this.
■ At the rally, we will call out age discrimination in the workplace.
■ Thousands of older workers over age 50 live in quiet bad state.
39. Religion
■ Religion is an important part of most, if not all, societies and
cultures around the globe.
■ It plays a vital role in people’s understanding and interpretation.
■ Religion, however, has not been taken seriously enough in the
academic approaches to poverty-issues, neither as constituting a
part of cultures and people’s lives, nor as a field of study in
relationship to social justice.
■ Religious traditions also embrace the idea of human dignity.
41. Social Justice
■ “Social Justice aims to provide equal opportunities
to every individual to develop his inherent qualities.”
Barker
■ “By social justice we mean ending all kinds of
social inequalities and then to provide equal
Opportunities to everyone.”
