The intersection of Social Justice and Decision Sciences presents a multifaceted discussion that explores the intricate relationship between ethical considerations and the application of decision-making methodologies. This paper delves into the theoretical underpinnings of social justice and its implications for decision-making processes that are both ethical and equitable. It examines how principles of fairness, equity, and inclusivity can be integrated into decision models that are traditionally focused on efficiency and profitability. The analysis explores various decision theories and frameworks, such as Utilitarianism, Rawlsian theory of justice, and the Theory of Fairness, and discusses their relevance in addressing social issues. Additionally, the paper underscores the importance of empirical studies that utilize decision science tools to assess the impact of social justice on decision outcomes. It concludes with a call for further research to develop more robust and socially responsible decision-making frameworks that can contribute to a more equitable society.
