Abstracts

Ideas and concepts oriented to social justice, which are the main topic of the paper, grew from historical conditions since ancient times to the 20th century. The legitimacy of concepts such as equality, justice, the right to decent life, and others, had its origins in basic Christianity, Reformation and in modern Enlightenment thinking, which emphasized education and democratization of society as best means to solve social problems. In the Czech context a number of intellectuals welcomed this stream and developed relevant concepts in harmony with the conditions and needs of Czech society.
