Abstract
This preliminary study aims to contribute a language perspective to the study of these two concepts and illustrate some of the key similarities and differences in their conceptualisation in the Chinese and Western semiospheres. We will observe universal traits as well as cultural specificities in the conceptualisation of these two notions. My main aim here is to show how JUSTICE and INJUSTICE are talked about, rather than what they are. It is believed that an answer to the first question may enrich the contributes about the second.
