Description
Justice as Fairness: A Restatement by John Rawls
This collection of lectures offers a comprehensive overview of Rawls' theory of justice, drawing on his previous works and revised in light of more recent papers. The result is a nuanced exploration of the concept of justice in a pluralistic society.
Published in 2001, this book presents a broad account of Rawls' main lines of thought, while also addressing specific issues that have not been previously addressed in his writings. Despite changes in American society since the publication of A Theory of Justice in 1971, Rawls' ideas remain relevant to debates about liberalism and the meaning of justice.
