This essay explores the concept of justice and the limits of moral progress, critically analyzing Martin Luther King Jr.’s assertion that the moral arc of the universe bends toward justice. Drawing on the philosophies of Thomas Hobbes and John Locke, the text examines how different societies—from the pre-Hispanic Tahuantinsuyo to contemporary Singapore and the United States—adapt their moral principles to specific historical, economic, and political challenges. It offers a balanced reflection on moral relativism, state stability, and individual freedoms.
