Social justice is a critical concept in contemporary sociology, concerned with the equitable distribution of wealth, opportunities, and privileges within society. It addresses structural inequalities that marginalize individuals based on race, gender, class, and other social factors. This paper explores the evolution of social justice within sociological theory and its implications for social policy and activism. Using a mixed-methods approach, including qualitative interviews and quantitative surveys, this study investigates public perceptions of social justice issues in urban and rural areas. The findings highlight the role of education, governmental policy, and social movements in addressing systemic inequalities. This article concludes by discussing the future of social justice in light of ongoing global challenges, including economic disparities and cultural conflicts.
