The need for social approval is important?

No. Social approval is not vital in carrying out life. If someone doesn't approve of you, then their approval isn't important enough to consider. A great author once said, "God made life to impress him, not other people." -- And in American culture that is the socially approved way of answering the question, as if we were self-confirming individuals, not caring at all for each other's opinions. But in reality we are highly in need of social approval. One psychologist wrote, "the need for social approval is often more important than the pursuit of happiness." The reality for many is that the pursuit of happiness is impossible without at least some social approval.


What is social justice as part of social order?

Social Justice generally refers to justice being practiced in a society without question of race, colour or wealth. IN a Social order their needs to be stability for the social order to exist. For example, the UNited States has lasted over 226 years as a nation because of the institutions which protect social justice within the social order. Those who are a different color , or race or are poor, have access to social justice (fair court system, social assistance in the form of welfare if necessary for example) and this has been codified (made legal) in the system by laws which have become part of the institutions (legal expectations for example) over the years. Those countries or situations (for example, slavery was against social justice) which work against providing proper fair social justice have difficulty maintaining the social order, and frequently, in history, have met with rebellion or revolution on occasion. Now, the fact that there is social justice which contributes to the existing and future social order DOESN't mean everyone is happy or agrees. IN fact, as part of a functioning democracy, the people often disagree as to whether the social order is being properly served by the existing social justice in the country. Be that as it may, the society which is able to be flexible enough to both allow protest and at the same time have an existing and well functioning social justice system which allows such protest, is one which has shown the stability necessary to function within a democratic social order. The UNited States, Canada, Great Britain, and several others, are examples of nations which have instituted social order within a successful social justice paradigm (structure or access to rights under the law).
