Meaning of Lady Justice Symbol
The blindfolded girl represents objectivity and impartiality, that justice should be meted out without fear or favor, regardless of money, wealth, or power.
She holds oars to represent the weighing of evidence, evidence must be weighed on its own merit.
The aim of law is the establishment of what is legitimate; provide legal security, and prevention of unjust actions.
Justice has only four major dimensions:
Social Justice
Economic Justice
Political Justice
Legal Justice.
All these forms are totally inter-related and interdependent.
We need Climate Justice.
