商品簡介
Hoffe compiles 12 essays by authors from different philosophical backgrounds, who explore philosopher and professor John Rawls' ideas about political ethics in his book A Theory of Justice (1971), as well as their scope and power of persuasion. They consider the paradigm shifts in his ideas, the volume's method of reasoning, and his ideas about justice as fairness in each chapter, which address the principles of justice, the original position, utilitarianism, equal liberty, the justice of distributive shares, the duty of justice, a theory of the good, the sense of justice, and the good of justice, as well as considering his ideas from a globalization perspective, including those from Political Liberalism (1993). The volume was originally published in German and has been translated by Joost den Haan. Annotation c2013 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
