The idea of justice in John Rawls

Meer over het boek

John Rawls presents a novel approach to justice centered on social equity, advocating for principles agreed upon under a "veil of ignorance" that remain unchallengeable in civil life. His concept of solidarity fosters equitable equality of opportunity, enabling everyone to succeed and grow. Rawls emphasizes the establishment of fundamental institutions to support this framework. He asserts that freedom is a fundamental right that must be upheld, while also highlighting that addressing social inequalities involves uplifting marginalized groups.
