Moralitas Keadilan: Imperatif Moral Orang Katolik

Abstract

The most problematic term in social relationships is justice. It covers
all dimensions in human life. Since the way people understand the
meaning of justice differs from time to time and from generations to
other generations, it is worthy to trace the original meaning of justice.
This article tries to describe the root of justice in the religious realm.
Justice is regarded as a virtue which is imprinted in the human being.
Human beings are created in the image of God. As a consequence, being
human means being just as God, the creator is just. Practicing justice
in human relations is a way of making justice which stems from God
can be tangible. This is the imperative of doing justice in the world.
