Abstract

This chapter describes the impact of change in the countries with emerging markets on the perception of social justice. The societies undergoing rapid social change develop a high level of inequality. Their evolution cannot be fully explained by existing social theory. The inherent individualism of the Rawlsian theory of justice does little to promote justice in countries with weak or undeveloped institutions.Therefore, it is important for sociologists of the BRICS to cooperate to promote their own vision of social policy and its important priorities. Social justice is far from being an issue of internal policy, it is global and must involve global communities in the solution of the existing problems.
