Interesting Social Justice Topic That Will Remain Relevant In 2019

By Laura Sullivan


Societies and generations have to deal with unique issues at each era. However, some of the issues are classical because they never die. They mutate and take a fresh twist with every generation. Here is a look at timeless social justice topic and issues that will still dominate 2019. They remain relevant for academic or media discussion without boredom to readers and the audience.

Abortion has refused to disappear from the minds of the society. Whether you are discussing the right of the mother to make a decision about her body or you take the moral trajectory, consensus remains elusive. There is the unresolved tussle between civil right activities and those advocating for personal liberties. Such contents are far from being settled.

Women and their role in combat remains a thorny issue. Crusaders are of the opinion that the terrain is skewed against the woman. There is no way to explain why women are not taking front seats as army generals across the world. There is a feeling that there is a deliberate scheme to lock them out. For women, they claim that they have the potential, contrary to what male chauvinists think.

Religion and the freedoms associated with it are a hot topic of discussion in the society and academic discourse. Religion was regarded as the root of morality. There were passes that were reserved for religious leaders and their guidance. However, its position in the society has been waning. Terrorism has also made the society to regard religion in different light. The actions of churches and their leaders are also a subject for debate.

Gender diversity in work places is one of the debates that appear to be endless. The issue is given prominence by the absence of as many women among the top CEOs of global companies. If parity was to be achieved, more women would have to occupy these positions. The debate ranges on whether this is through natural human resource forces or the situation is deliberate.

While the world says you can become anything you want, it has denied people the opportunity to be dead. The contention is that life is sacred and cannot be left to the whims of an individual. What happens when you are terminally ill and no chance of healing? This remains one of the most contested positions. Is it time to allow euthanasia?

The widening gap between poor workers and their employers has not escaped the attention of global activists. It is made worse by the scenario where multinationals report millions in profits but their workers languish in poverty. It appears that prosperity is not shared. Nothing can justify the fact that a worker cannot afford the goods he or she manufactures. Is the declaration of obscene profits therefore a subject of exploitation?

Discussions on social justice take multiple dimensions depending on who is moderating. The topics above remain relevant at local and international level. There are numerous points and data to support different positions. It is up to you to tweak the discussion and align it to your circumstances.
