Beyond Justice as Fairness

Rethinking Rawls from a Cross-Cultural Perspective

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book explores the three foundational topics in Rawls's theories of justice (social justice, multiculturalism, and global justice) while deconstructing ideas of democratic citizenship, public reason, and liberal individualism latent in his treatment of these subjects in order to uncover their cultural and historical underpinnings.
