John Rawls' Theory of Justice
What is John Rawls' theory of justice?
John Rawls' theory of justice attempts to explain why social inequalities are unjust and what a just society really is.
Developed in his 1971 book A Theory of Justice, it begins with the fundamental principle that every individual is inviolable.
Then two basic principles of justice are introduced, namely the equal liberty principle and the difference principle — principles which, according to Rawls, express what he calls “justice as fairness”.
To apply his theory of justice, Rawls appropriates the concepts of the original position and the veil of ignorance.
