Abstract
Justice has moral, social and legal significance. The study of this category has led to an understanding of justice as the main moral category that affects various aspects of both public life and the life of every person. Justice is expressed in law, which makes the legal regulation of public relations fair and morally justified. A fair lawmakes it possible to achieve social justice. The moral principle of justice provided for in law turns it into a moral and legal imperative. The transformation of the moral category of justice into the legal one occurs in the process of law-making in order to establish a just social order. Social justice forms social statehood, which meansthat the state is obliged to pursue social policy and be responsible for ensuring a decent life for every person.The principle of social justice is not directly reflected, but it is embedded in manyConstitutions implementedin government decisions based on the idea of justice, related to the concept of human rights and the rule of law.
