			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Though I procrastinated for the past few weeks, I finally got it done. I am done editing the <em>Socioeconomic Justice Situation Survey</em> questionnaire that I designed a few years ago for Jamaicans for Justice (JFJ). It measures the experiences of social and economic justice in Jamaican communities.</p>
<p>In order to accurately test and compare experiences aimed at measuring justice, there is a definite need to conduct the survey across different socioeconomic communities. The challenge though, is that the Project targets poor/impoverished communities, so comparison is done amongst apples only, rather than between apples and grapes.</p>

</script></div><p>The main thrust for the recent edit of the questionnaire was to center the household head as main subject of the survey. The profile of the head as male or female was a matter of much interest, as there was now a need to know if male and female headed households had different experiences. When will the inter-class research and comparison on  experiences of socioeconomic justice commence? The experiences are markedly different there. Even by mere observation one can see the difference between Barbican, West Gate Hills, and Liguanea on the one hand and Springfield, Albion Mountain, and Fletcher&#8217;s Land on the other hand in terms of their: housing stock, road conditions, access to security services, quality of schools, levels of crime, and access to work.</p>
<p>An efficacious strategy that is geared at measuring socioeconomic justice, at the national level, must have as its target poor, affluent, urban, rural, and minority communities, not an emphasis on one set at the expense of others.
