Answer:
With this statement, McElvaine meant that social justice is the only way to promote the same privileges to all members of a society and that is what a common good must do.
Explanation:
Commonly, it is the term that refers to benefits that are distributed equally to all members of society, so that they all have access to exactly all the resources necessary for their well-being. When McElvaine claims that common good is best achieved by promoting social justice over economic liberty, she/he meant that only social justice, that is, the view that all individuals deserve the same rights, opportunities and privileges, is capable to promote this equal distribution of social resources. For this reason, social justice must be sought first, so that economic freedom can be achieved later.
Answer:
In international development, good governance is a way of measuring how public institutions conduct public affairs and manage public resources in a preferred way. Governance is "the process of decision-making and the process by which decisions are implemented (or not implemented)".[1] Governance in this context can apply to corporate, international, national, or local governance[1] as well as the interactions between other sectors of society.
The concept of "good governance" thus emerges as a model to compare ineffective economies or political bodies with viable economies and political bodies.[2] The concept centers on the responsibility of governments and governing bodies to meet the needs of the masses as opposed to select groups in society. Because countries often described as "most successful" are liberal democratic states, concentrated in Europe and the Americas, good governance standards often measure other state institutions against these states.[2] Aid organizations and the authorities of developed countries often will focus the meaning of "good governance" to a set of requirements that conform to the organization's agenda, making "good governance" imply many different things in many different contexts.[3][4][5] The opposite of good governance, as a concept, is bad governance.[6]
