Introduction: Generally, when speak about the" social welfare”, less attention is paid to the fundamental concepts and philosophy of welfare and related social welfare. And usually welfare needs are considered as secondary and Superstructure needs. Welfare needs of the people, which are rarely seen among the fundamental needs and basic rights be considered. Therefore, this causes especially in the case of economic and political constraints to be comfortable regardless of the welfare needs of the people.

 

However, basic concepts of the social welfare, in most intellectual traditions are several key variables, that, These variables are exactly the same concepts which make up the basic core of the "right". Therefore, if the social welfare as a" right" to be seen, Then social welfare is considered as well as the" fundamental rights" of the people.

Are they potentially able to move freely in the direction of their inherent dignity? Also, some elements must be provided up to people whom are able to plan and executed them to shed a good life, and In this regard, there are three essential elements: "independence," "freedom" and "resources".

 

On the other hand, if we pay attention to some issues are typically discussed by scholars of social welfare, Most of them refer to the concepts like "justice, equality, freedom and the distribution of resources", and many of the social policies are offered for providing justice and equality, establish freedom and fair distribution of material resources.
