Questions about relativism

Hello. This is my first post here. Hope i'm not messing things up.

Does anyone here know the arguments for and against moral relativism? I've read a few things on the subject in the past, but i've mostly forgotten them.

As far as I know it, moral relativism states there is no absolute truth, rather truth is defined by the culture, so one is allowed to say something like "its true if i believe in it." But how does this account for justice?

If anyone has an idea, help would greatly be appreciated.
