Summary/Abstract: The article presents the results from the investigation of the associative schemas related to the notions "justice" and "social justice". The investigated persons include three ethnic groups — Bulgarians, Bulgarians with Turkish consciousness and Gipsy. The aim is to be defined similarities and differences in associative content among the groups — basis for specific ways of perceiving and thinking on the problems of the justice. The results outline specific content for the two investigated notions. For example, the lack of governmental regulation as a factor for social justice at Bulgarians; more complex associations at Bulgarians with Turkish consciousness; and specific personal, problem-oriented thinking at Gipsy. The results help communication processes having in mind the possibility for their implementation in political talking.
