As an indivisible sub-system of society, education is relatively independent and deeply restricted by the social environment. The issue of education equity is regarded as an extension and expansion of social equity in education. It is a vital link that cannot be ignored in education and an essential cornerstone of social justice.

The series of conflicts that we see happening in Indonesia is inseparable from ethnic religion and culture, although there are factors such as structural inequality and system injustice. This factual reality might bring potential conflict, meaning that the latent danger of these factors can turn into a sensitive attitude. Some social analyzes assume that the potential for conflict becomes latent because the education system is unable to touch the psychological aspects of individual counseling and mental management in interacting with the community and its social environment. This study was categorized as literature research and field. describing or describing the social prejudices and ethnic stereotypes of religion that we see in Indonesia and based on the results of research journals/books that explain the stereotypes of ethnic religion. This paper will explain how to manage social prejudice and religious ethnic stereotypes through psychological and global education in the context of religious and cultural pluralism

The social justice is conditional on the provision of basic necessities of like at the bottom level of the social pyramid.

This article focuses on the practical, ontological, and epistemological similarities and differences between global education and participatory action research (PAR). The paper starts by presenting classical definitions of action research, highlighting their similarities with the ideas of global education. Considering the aim of global education is to promote social justice and to improve the social and educational chances of groups at risk of marginalization, participatory methods can help to involve such groups in research in an ethical and effective way. The paper ends with two examples in formal and non-formal education that show that PAR can be used to address the underlying transformative and social action principles of global education, but the principles must be adjusted to meet the needs of the participants and the context.

This chapter provides an overview of the determinants of (ill) health, which in turn help explain observed inequalities in health across population groups. It includes a graphical representation of three sets of determinants along an ‘outside–inside own control’ continuum: genetic endowments are health preconditions and reflect a ‘biological lottery’ over which people have no control; the social environment reflects a ‘social lottery’ over which people have some control; while health-related behaviour is something people have much control over. This framework forms the basis for a discussion of which causes of ill health people might be held responsible for, and which causes that are avoidable, and hence considered to represent an unfair inequality. A brief discussion is included on the various normative arguments that attempt to change the focus of social justice from equality in health outcomes to equality of health opportunities.

The sense of equity reflects how fair a domain is as evaluated by those engaging in that domain. It is very meaningful to explore the sense of equity among college students, which are a special group of people. This study carried out a questionnaire survey on the sense of equity among 982 college students in China, from the perspectives of educational equity and social equity. The questions were validated by the 27/73 quantile method, and the survey results were analyzed through one-way analysis of variance (one-way ANOVA). The results showed that the college students could evaluate the sense of equity rather accurately and generally had a higher sense of equity, but failed to sense the social outcome equity well; their sense of social equity was lower than the sense of educational equity; the sense of equity varied between college students in different majors: the science majors had a lower sense of equity than those majoring in liberal arts; some college students had a misunderstanding of equity.

FQ books editor Carla Marcantonio guides readers through the 33rd edition of Il Cinema Ritrovato Festival held each year in Bologna at the end of June. Highlights of this year's festival included a restoration of one of Vittorio De Sica's hard-to-find and hence lesser-known films, the social justice fairy tale, Miracolo a Milano (Miracle in Milan, 1951). The film was presented by De Sica's daughter, Emi De Sica, and was an example of the ongoing project to restore De Sica's archive, which was given to the Cineteca de Bologna in 2016. Marcantonio also notes her unexpected responses to certain reviewings; Apocalypse Now: Final Cut (2019), presented by Francis Ford Coppola on the large-scale screen of Piazza Maggiore and accompanied by remastered Dolby Atmos sound, struck her as a tour-de-force while a restoration of David Lynch's Blue Velvet (1986) had lost some of its strange allure.
