Why did discussion on social justice increase after the Russian Revolution?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because socialism emphasised equality and opposition to exploitation
The governing concept is social justice as expressed through socialist ideas. Socialism criticised a society in which wealth and property were concentrated in the hands of a small class while workers and poor people experienced low wages, insecurity and exploitation. The Russian Revolution made the possibility of reorganising society around equality, collective interests and workers’ welfare appear politically real. This encouraged wider debate about fair distribution, rights and protection from exploitation. Option A is correct because it states the central link between socialism, equality and opposition to exploitation. The return of monarchy, stronger colonialism or an increase in Church tax does not explain the growth of this discussion.
