Bol Partner A study of Rawls' work, "A Theory of Justice", the book gives a concise account of Rawls' central ideas, situates them within contemporary debates and subjects them to critical scrutiny. Among the subjects covered are utilitarianism, majoritarianism and the contractarian synthesis. John Rawls's A Theory of Justice has been enormously influential in philosophy, political theory, welfare economics and jurisprudence. This book is a systematic study of Rawls's work. It provides a clear and concise account of Rawls's ideas, situates them within contemporary debates and submits them to critical scrutiny. The authors discuss the background against which A Theory of Justice was written, the contractarian character of Rawls's theory, his claims about justice and his arguments for them. Finally the authors look at Rawls's emerging self-interpretation and self-critique, identifying the different phases of his later development. Clear and accessible to non-specialists, this book will also be of great value to students in philosophy, sociology and economics.
