Explain the statement that social justice is based upon natural rights?
Answer for the USA: The writers of the constitution believed that rights of the individual were a "natural right", which mean that the right did not come from the state or government. Thus, if you read the bill of rights, it states that no law shall be passed to violate these rights, instead of granting these rights. This is a very important concept that was and still is unusual in the world. Thus, social justice would be based on maintaining the rights of the individual, which are the individual's natural rights.

The three basic natural rights, according to Locke, are: life, liberty, and property. There are other rights logically derivative from these, such as the right to speech, assembly, etc. Locke (and the 18th century natural rights theorists generally), thought of natural rights as "negative" rights, i.e., rights of non-interference, rather than as "positive" rights, i.e., rights to be provided with the means to obtaining something, e.g. the right to be provided with medical care. The latter, positive rights, imply that other(s) must provide something. No such rights exist naturally, according to original natural rights reasoning.
