When the leaders of the nations are corrupt, then there will never be a chance for justice. Many of those elected to represent the people are driven by their own personal agendas. Therefore, the powers that be will be motivated to empower others who will serve their needs.

There can only be justice when the governmental and judiciary system are run by people who are truly altruistic and that, my friend, is next to impossible to do as we are dealing with imperfect people.

Justice can be achieved when each hungry and love starved person is physically, emotionally and spiritually fed so that they won't feel the need to take from others.

Yes, there is justice in this world we live in, often times it is delayed or even denied, as the saying goes "JUSTICE DELAYED JUSTICE DENIED"

Justice for me:

1. Is a concept involving the system of consequences which naturally derives from any action or choice.
2. Justice is a particularly foundational concept within most systems of law, and draws highly upon established and well-regarded social traditions and values.
3. In most cases what one regards as "just" (not necessarily meaning what is just) is determined by consulting established and agreeable principles, employing logic, or, natural law In certain systems justice is determined, by consulting a majority, or in social contexts where religion dominates, justice may be thought to require deference to religious texts or to spiritual guidance, under a monarchy or authoritarian state the ruler/s determined what was just and doled out justice. All of these determinants of justice have at times delivered particularlly dark periods of history where justice was seen to be absent.

4. Justice, however, is a universal and absolute concept; laws, principles, religion, etc., are merely attempts to codify the concept -- occasionally with results that entirely contradict the true nature of justice.

BASE ON APPLICATION AND INTERPRETATION THEREOF:

Justice is a universal law, just like gravity or other various physical laws. These laws, to the best of humanity's knowledge, apply equally in all instances; thus, natural justice will not apply itself differently to different circumstances -- for any reason, even that of good intentions. Due to humanity's imperfect and often compassionate nature, human justice may differ slightly or drastically from natural justice.

Justice (in both senses) is part of the debate regarding moral relativism and moral objectivism. The debate centers around this question: is there an "objective standard" of justice, under which all actions should be judged, or is it acceptable for justice to have different meanings in different societies? Some cultures, for instance, see punishments such as the death penalty as being appropriate, while others decry such acts as crimes against humanity. As mentioned before, justice is an absolute concept and applies universally.

The Scales of JusticeIn some cases, justice is not equated with laws. For instance, laws that supported slavery are now known to be unjust, such as the Fugitive Slave Law of 1850 in the United States. Also, many laws of illegitimate governments are considered unjust. Further, the social justice movement questions the morality of laws that protect property rights without adequate protection of the poor, especially those laws governing international trade.

One facet of justice holds that if a person or government initiates coercion (or the threat of it) then it is acting unjustly. Physical force may only be used in defense. As long as all persons and governments adhere to this standard, justice is being observed.

Here is but some of the meaning of Justice, there are more concept about justice. it varies from one person to another, from culture to another culture, from religion to another religion, so to speak.
