I spent this past summer reading the four major prophets and the twelve minor prophets of the Old Testament.  Each of them wrote a great amount about justice.  The thought that struck me the most is that God holds the leaders of society accountable for the administration of justice. I believe that the philosophical and theological basis for social justice comes from the Heavenly Father whom the prophet Amos quotes in Amos 5:24 "Let justice flow like waters and goodness like a mighty stream."  That is probably too general for the article's author, but I believe it is a good starting place.

Was Thomas Paine a Marxist for writing Agrarian Justice?

Social justice is wealth pairity for all humans on Earth. See “POPULORUM PROGRESSIO ENCYCLICAL OF POPE PAUL VI ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF PEOPLES” MARCH 26, 1967 “Unless the existing machinery is modified, the disparity between rich and poor nations will increase rather than diminish” “existing machinery” is a free markets.

They do admit it.  I've spoken to those directly and indirectly who openly say they are Marxist.  This seems to be the direction of this country and it will likely be its down fall if this unattainable Utopian dream continues.
