Produktbeschreibungen
Amazon.co.uk
Since it appeared in 1971, John Rawls's A Theory of Justice has become a classic. The author has now revised the original edition to clear up a number of difficulties he and others have found in the original book. Rawls aims to express an essential part of the common core of the democratic tradition--justice as fairness--and to provide an alternative to utilitarianism, which had dominated the Anglo-Saxon tradition of political thought since the 19th century. Rawls substitutes the ideal of the social contract as a more satisfactory account of the basic rights and liberties of citizens as free and equal persons. "Each person", writes Rawls, "possesses an inviolability founded on justice that even the welfare of society as a whole cannot override." Advancing the ideas of Rousseau, Kant, Emerson and Lincoln, Rawls's theory is as powerful today as it was when first published. --Christine Buttery

Pressestimmen
John Rawls draws on the most subtle techniques of contemporary analytic philosophy to provide the social contract tradition with what is, from a philosophical point of view at least, the most formidable defense it has yet received ...[and] makes available the powerful intellectual resources and the comprehensive approach that have so far eluded antiutilitarians. -- Marshall Cohen New York Times Book Review I mean ...to press my recommendation of [this book] to non-philosophers, especially those holding positions of responsibility in law and government. For the topic with which it deals is central to this country's purposes, and the misunderstanding of that topic is central to its difficulties. -- Peter Caws New Republic The most substantial and interesting contribution to moral philosophy since the war. -- Stuart Hampshire New York Review of Books

This work has permanently redefined the landscape of political thought in the English-speaking world. Somebody below has said that Robert Nozick completely refuted Rawls in _Anarchy, State, and Utopia_. That is, to say the least, highly debatable. Here is what Nozick says:
"_A Theory of Justice_ is a powerful, deep, subtle, wide-ranging, systematic work in political and moral philosophy which has not seen its like since the writings of J.S. Mill, if then. It is a fountain of illuminating ideas, integrated together in a lovely whole. Political philosophers now must work within Rawls' theory or explain why not."
Political philosophy since Rawls has been entirely devoted to elaborating or refuting his theory. This is not light reading, but if you are interested in political theory, it is essential reading.

Format:Taschenbuch
In an era in which Reactionaries decry the essential components of the social contract and seek to reconstruct what is essentially a "command and control" hierarchy informed by Industrial ideals of governance and Aristotelian ideas of social "location," Rawls stands alone as a thinker who can cogently and lucidly reconcile the manifestations of everyday life with the essential humanity of democratic ideals.
Rawls is the contemporary voice of a line of thought which has guided our republican system of governance away from its inbuilt potential for dehuminization for over two hundred years. His ideas, when wielded in the proper hands, will become crucial tools for navigating the global dynamics of 21st century democracy.

You don't have to think Rawls has put forward an irrefutable argument to think this is a fascinating book that develops a number of interesting lines of reasoning. Five stars for a highly original argument.
Having said that, any even slightly contemporary philosophy of mind (that incorporates any lessons from cognitive science) invalidates Rawls' Original Position. The Original Position requires the notion of a mind whose rational faculties can be completely divorced from any "situatedness" of the mind in the body, a completely obsolete Cartesian view.

Only an academic could be so dumb...
In the interest of full disclosure, I'll admit that I agree with just about nothing this man says. But other writers I disagree with just as much are not nearly so galling. Lesen Sie weiter...

Deeply Disappointing
It's hard to write clearly about ideas, so it's no surprise that Rawls fails. His book is worse than dense, it's nearly impenetrable, and does not do justice (ahem) to his... Lesen Sie weiter...

Pasty-faced corporate liberalism from the master
I read this book when I was a senior at Fordham, and was struck by the banality of the argument. Rawls may be a Harvard professor, but sounds more like a speech writer for Adlai... Lesen Sie weiter...
