{"product_id":"justice-as-fairness-john-rawls-9780674005112","title":"Justice as Fairness: A Restatement","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book originated as lectures for a course on political philosophy that Rawls taught regularly at Harvard in the 1980s. In time the lectures became a restatement of his theory of justice as fairness, revised in light of his more recent papers and his treatise \u003ci\u003ePolitical Liberalism\u003c\/i\u003e (1993). As Rawls writes in the preface, the restatement presents \"in one place an account of justice as fairness as I now see it, drawing on all [my previous] works.\" He offers a broad overview of his main lines of thought and also explores specific issues never before addressed in any of his writings. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRawls is well aware that since the publication of \u003ci\u003eA Theory of Justice\u003c\/i\u003e in 1971, American society has moved farther away from the idea of justice as fairness. Yet his ideas retain their power and relevance to debates in a pluralistic society about the meaning and theoretical viability of liberalism. This book demonstrates that moral clarity can be achieved even when a collective commitment to justice is uncertain.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Rawls\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0674005112\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780674005112\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Belknap Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/16\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.23h x 6.14w x 0.62d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/15\/2001 pg. 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/24\/2001 pg. 21\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2001 pg. 591","brand":"John Rawls","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44045654753535,"sku":"9780674005112","price":34.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7d05e701-6c0b-4ce9-82c0-54b29f4b52d7.jpg?v=1684979960","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/justice-as-fairness-john-rawls-9780674005112","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
