Global issue -  Social justice

  Social justice have many ways, such as health,education,wealth etc.It could be nice if we be objective to our life ,but the truth is we usually use color-contained glasses to see the world.What is justice society?To figure this out we thought about John Rawls who write the book-A Theory Of Justice,he say the justice society is a society if you know everything about it,you will willing to be placed in any place.So there is a research about what characteristics if the country have will make you want to join?

         The truth is nobody in the sample want the full equality.But compare to wealth,the inequal on  the health and education  make people more angry.

Can big data transform social justice?

Global Citizenship and Cultural Literacy

Global Citizenship and Cultural Literacy

 1.What are the main points that this documentary addresses? 

  The main point of this article is to tell us how to become a global citizen and how to promote the awareness of the global community.

2.How would you define the challenges that societies face?

 I think the most important challenge we need to face is capitalism.Capitalism emphasize benefits  too much that it often distort humanitarian needs.Millions of Africans died of malaria a year, do not have any Big Pharma vaccine research and development; in the United States to treat male baldness drugs, was able to attract large sums of money.

3.How do these issues affect our political systems?

  Cultural literacy can be a useful tool of country belonging, improve international competition and step up global responsibility.

4.How would you suggest that societies address these issues/challenges? 

  I think we can participate some protest activity relative with environment, labor and so on.If we care the issues relative to us then we care the issues other countries.
