  In this theory the justice and beneficence of societies and of the global order are to be judged by how well they effect these well-being dimensions in their political structures and social practices. The job of global justice and beneficence is to secure a sufficient level of each dimension for persons and to alleviate the social structures that cause the corresponding forms of ill-being. This theory of well-being and its place in moral theory and social policy can be expressed in terms of the roles of both social beneficence and social justice.
