Third, it is „guarantee of dignity of man‟. Respect for individual‟s personality is
guaranteed as people‟s basic rights in democratic idea; although it is important to promote the
whole society‟s welfare, the individuals form the society. Therefore, guaranteeing human‟s
dignity is the foundation of social welfare.
Fourth, it is human‟s equality and realization of equal opportunity. If there are
various social inequalities to people in one group, they will become causes of criticism and
will reverse the justice of society, equality, human dignity, and national peace. Therefore,
social welfare has to accomplish those principles through process of social welfare practice.
Finally, it is accomplishment of human‟s social responsibility. Social welfare‟s
eventual goal is not for personal respect, equality, and personal decision of people living
independently. It just helps clients to connect several social responsibilities for individuals,
family, and communities to make smooth harmony and to take healthy social responsibilities.
As mentioned above, because justice basically takes all human‟s dignity and
connects equal regards, equal affection, and equal opportunity and responsibility, the five
basic principle of social welfare can be called the “realization of social justice.”
Limitations of Social Welfare
When we look at social welfare from its contents, it started from God‟s will which is
the background of Jesus Christ‟s spirit and life. This practical study made lots of problems
because it went through the theory correction process and lost its founding purpose. Social
welfare used to emphasize the human‟s dignity, right to decide, equal opportunities, and
social responsibility, but it does not seem to control the human‟s problems generally and
comprehensively. Human life is very important in social, emotional and spiritual element.
Regarding that, contemporary Social Welfare is often pointed out as being unable to cope
with humanity‟s problems. The motives and operation of the modern social welfare
development also have many problems.
