   Is Justice a virtue?

   • However, justice as a virtue of societies, polities, and their institutions is addressed elsewhere , so the focus in this essay will be on justice as a virtue in individuals. That said, individuals typically live as members of political communities, so the societal dimension of justice as a virtue will never be long out of view (Woodruff 2018).

   Does justice have a priority over other virtues?

   • Even in Republic, in which Plato makes justice a “master virtue” of sorts, there are other virtues (wisdom, courage, and self-discipline), and elsewhere (notably Gorgias) Plato makes self-discipline ( sophrosune ) the “master virtue,” so it is not clear that justice has any sort of priority over these other virtues.

   Jan 17, 2024 · I think that most people think of morals as an absolute thing, like lying is bad and killing is bad, and so on. But this is in very basic and elementary scenarios. In more complicated scenarios, like wars, it will be very hard to define what morals and justice mean and how to describe what is good and what is bad.

   “Hard cases may make bad law, but in Michael Sandel’s hands they produce some cool philosophy…. Justice is a timely plea for us to desist from political bickering and see if we can have a sensible discussion about what sort of society we really want to live in.” (Jonathan Ree, The Observer (London))
