repost What do you think of John Rawls' theory of justice? Here are some key points... Let’s imagine a group of people unaware of their age, sex, ethnicity, religion, economic class, wealth, income, intelligence, talents, etc. ‘THE VEIL OF IGNORANCE’ Everyone would be placed in a situation which is called the ‘ORIGINAL POSITION’. They couldn’t be guided by their own selfish interests. They would be forced to adopt a generalized point of view. What would this group agree upon for the realisation of justice? In this original position, people would agree upon 2 principles. Equal Liberty equal right to basic liberties: freedom of thought and conscience, expression, association, and democratic rights… Equality fair equality for opportunity, with equal access to education and health facilities so that everyone has a fair chance to develop his or her talents. 'Liberal democracies have favored respect for freedoms, sometimes to the detriment of equality, while socialist regimes have restricted freedoms in the name of equality. Rawls envisions a solution to this dilemma: a just society must be based on principles that guarantee freedom and fairness.' https://lnkd.in/e8yPkm4k COOPERATION BETWEEN INDIVIDUALS AND NATIONS MUST PREVAIL OVER COMPETITION. John Rawls opposes the utilitarian argument that society should pursue the greatest good for the greatest number, consistent with the idea of the tyranny of majorities over minorities. NO INDIVIDUAL IS MORE OR LESS VALUABLE THAN ANOTHER. “A THEORY OF JUSTICE” 1971 JOHN RAWLS 1921-2002 has been referred to as the most important moral and political philosopher of the 20th century. In 1999, US President Bill Clinton awarded Rawls the National Humanities Medal. https://lnkd.in/eZECNZCf https://lnkd.in/ehEitK2b plus de contenu et de partages sur Instagram 😃 @walkforeurope #walkforeurope #johnrawls #atheoryofjustice #justice #socialjustice #equality #fairness #freedom #liberty #EU #EuropeanUnion #Europe #Europeans #European #abetterworld #allactivists
