This is really an essay question but I can make a general comment. I don't think Scout considered justice early in the novel. She was content to play games with Jem and Dill on the long summer days. She imagines Boo Radly as a ghostly spectre that she, Dill, and her brother try to lure out of his house. Scout begins to ponder justice when her father takes the Tom Robinson case. She is thrust into the world of bigotry and cruelty. As Boo Radley begins to connect with her (like gifts in the tree whole), Scout begins to consider people, her included, have not been fair to him. By the end of the novel, Scout learns that the world is not a fair place and that justice is not always served. Scout, however, realizes that the world can still be a good place if people like her father continues to fight for what is right.
