Abstract

Justice is the pursuit of human beings has long been a serious issue, and Western philosophy and human nature demands the basis of justice are generally pre-modern Catholic social thought also attach importance to this issue; this philosophy from the modern discussion of the issue of justice as a starting point, to J. Rawls Theory of Justice as the basis for discussion, reflection of modern Chinese philosophy of "justice," the theme of research, and Catholicism in six ○ years after the Second Vatican Council, Pope Paul VI and today敎were a number of the John Paul II Justice's remarks to be described, and finally put forward just can not ignore the natural law of thought, also suggested that the discussion of justice, from philosophy into the field of religion and theology. Mankind has been grappling with the concept of "justice" for a long time now. Western and Chinese philosophy both demand a common basis in justice. Modern Catholicism is also concerned with the problem in a social context. This article would like to proceed from the perspective of modern philosophy in discussing justice, using John Rawl's theory of justice as a basis. I would then like to reflect on this concept in the realm of modern Chinese philosophy; then proceed with a discussion of the 1960's Vatican II conference where Pope Paul VI and other dignitaries attempted to expound on Pope Paul II's theory of justice. Finally, I would like to point out that any discussion on "justice" cannot overlook a reflection on a "natural law". It is from this law that we can discuss justice in the realm of religion and theology
