Academic Philo Quick Notes Thread: John Rawls: Theory of Justice -Attempts to explain why clear social inequalities are unjust and what a just society really is -both a work of ethics and politics -Rawls attempted to address the problem of distributive justice -Appears to be a moral contractarian -Theory of justice is in itself a kind of "social contract" A just society is: -with characteristics that conform to normative rules -Everyone would agree on them fundamental principle - "every individual is inviolable" Implications: 1. Life should not be sacrificed for the sake of the majority i.e suppressing the people's right to speech and expression for the sake of economic growth directly attacks consequentialist ethics (utilitarianism) 2. An erroneous theory is tolerable in the absence of a good one -an unjust law is better than no law at all; an act of injustice is tolerable ⟷ necessary to avoid a greater act of injustice i.e it might be morally right to incapacitate if not to kill a notorious a serial killer to stop him from killing more people 3. individual liberties should be restricted to maintain equality of opportunity -restrictions through law preserves freedom in democracy i.e it is probably morally right to restrict people from owning more than five hectares of an agricultural lot so that other people will have the chance to own a lot

Justice as Fairness First principle Equal Liberty Principle -emphasis on equal access to the basic human needs rights and liberties -guarantees the right of each person to have the extensive basic Liberty compatible with the liberty of others i.e right to vote, right to speech, the right to peaceable assembly Second principle Difference Principle -emphasizes the idea of fair equality of opportunity and the equal distribution of socio-economic inequalities -this principle implies that social and economic positions are: a) to everyone's advantage b) open to all

Theoretical veil of ignorance "All players in the social game would be placed in a hypothetical situation called the "original position" -each individual does not know her sex, race, natural abilities, social status, economic conditions, and the like (individual's hidden identity - behind the veil of ignorance) individual sets aside her biases towards and preconceptions about anything note: Edmund Husserl Epoche (phenomonological reduction) -out of this veil of ignorance: a) each individual makes a rational prudential choice this concerns the kind of social institution they would enter into contract with

Conclusion original position ➽ individuals agree on specific social rules and institutions veil of ignorance ➽ individuals choose the basic structure of society that they think is just a) justice as fairness is achieved through the notions of the original position and the veil of ignorance b) if everybody in the original position promotes equality then justice as fairness is attained c) if inequality is upheld then injustice prevails ➽Selfish but rational people who are w/o concrete identity and context will freely choose to create a just society ➽via veil of ignorance individuals can identify beliefs about how society should be organized

I’ve often wondered if the Rawlsian view of the good is a kind of individualism. Each person decides for themselves given the starting perimeters. But what if their initial view of the good is mistaken?
@PHILOnotes

Yes, Dr. Anderson. In fact, some critics of Rawls argued that his theory of justice is leaning towards individualism. And, indeed, morality is jeopardized if the initial view of the good is mistaken.
