John Rawls
A leading political philosopher in the tradition of Locke, Rousseau and Kant, he put individual rights ahead of the common good

Wednesday November 27, 2002
The Guardian
With the death of John Rawls, from heart failure at the age of 81, the English-speaking world lost its leading political philosopher. An exceptionally modest and retiring man, with a bat-like horror of the limelight, he consistently refused the honours he was offered, and declined to pursue the career as public commentator or media guru opened to him by his achievements. Nevertheless, after its appearance in 1971, his most important book, A Theory Of Justice - written during the Vietnam war - became required reading for students of philosophy, politics and law, and, in that way, Rawls has influenced several generations. Indeed, the book, which sold more than 300,000 copies in the US alone, more or less singlehandedly rejuvenated and transformed the study of political philosophy.

John Rawls's Political Liberalism
By Ted Vaggalis, Drury College
Introduction: addressing the failure of Theory of Justice Ever since the publication of A Theory of Justice John Rawls has been modifying his conception of justice as fairness. He realized that the kind of stability that would be needed in a democratic society that is marked by a pluralism of reasonable, but comprehensive moral views was inconsistent with the account of stability given in Theory . In Theory , Rawls had conceived of his principles of justice as an alternative systematic conception that was superior to utilitarianism. ( PL xv; Martin 737-8) But conceived in this way, justice as fairness turned out to be simply another reasonable comprehensive doctrine that was incompatible with other reasonable doctrines, such as utilitarianism and Kantian moral theory. This meant that the well-ordered society of justice as fairness was an unrealistic ideal for a democratic society. What Rawls came to realize is that the failure of Theory was that it did not distinguish between two very different kinds of moral conceptions: that of a comprehensive moral theory which addressed the problem of justice, and that of a political conception of justice that was independent of any comprehensive theory. (Martin 738)

Notes on
JOHN RAWLS
"A Theory of Justice" Thanks to this book, many people consider Rawls to be the most influential philosopher of the late 20th century.
Even a lot of politicians have read Rawls' book!
He is now getting on in years, and has not been entirely well lately, but he is still at Harvard University.
In his book, Rawls used a bunch of catchy phrases and terms that have really caught on among social and political thinkers. So you can often tell if a person is familiar with Rawls' theory just by the way they talk!
Justice As Fairness
Rawls' theorywhich he often calls justice as fairness is an example of a social contract theory. Rawls' ideas have a little bit in common with the social contract theories of Hobbes and Rousseau and Locke.
Rawls mentions Kant's Categorical Imperative and the rule about treating person only as ends and never as means, so people also tie Rawls' theory back to Kant.
Rawls' theory is considered a liberal theory , meaning primarily that he is in favour of a society which is designed to help out the less fortunate individuals.
Here are the key features of Rawls' theory:
The Original Position
Recall that Hobbes and Locke and Rousseau each described a state of nature. The state of nature was mainly just a useful idea; Hobbes said that humans never were actually in the state of nature. Hobbes described how people could leave a state of nature by a hypothetical social contract.

3 The priority of liberty
Let us turn now to the third of the distinctive features of Rawls's theory, the priority of liberty.
Liberty
('Freedom' and 'liberty' mean the same.) In 20th century political philosophy some have favoured a 'negative' concept of liberty (freedom from constraint) and criticised 'positive' notions of liberty ('freedom to') as incipiently authoritarian. According to Rawls every liberty is both negative and positive. That there is a certain liberty means that a certain person (or persons, or all persons) is (are) not under certain constraints, so that they can do a certain sort of thing (see p. 202). There are many possible liberties, including freedom of speech, freedom of conscience, religious freedom, freedom of the person (the rule of law, freedom from arbitrary arrest), freedom to acquire private property, certain political rights (the right to vote, to stand for office), etc. (American constitutional debates have produced a large literature on these topics; see for example M. Konvitz, Fundamental Liberties of a Free People .) Rawls does not discuss these in detail. Those who are poor, ignorant, lack the means, may not be able to take advantage of their rights (or liberties). Some writers have suggested that such circumstances (e.g. poverty) may violate such rights, thus building into the concept of the right the circumstances that make it possible to exercise it. Rawls does not follow this line. He does not say that poverty etc. violate or restrict the right; he says that they diminish its worth or value to the individual who has it. Thus he distinguishes between the right or liberty and its value or worth.

RAWLS: THE ORIGINAL POSITION
R.J. Kilcullen John Rawls, professor of philosophy at Harvard, published a paper in the Philosophical Review for 1958 called 'Justice as Fairness', followed up by various other papers, and in 1971 a large book A Theory of Justice . Rawls disagrees with the Utilitarians over their way of spelling out the idea of the happiness of mankind generally. They say: Consider whether the act, rule or institution to be evaluated is best for the happiness of mankind generally. The difficulty is that often it will be both to the advantage of some people and to the disadvantage of others. The effect on the happiness of mankind generally has to be assessed by somehow balancing off the bad effects on some people against the good effects on others. There is no way of avoiding this. Some of the practical questions we have to decide do involve choice between possible courses of action all of which have good effects on some people and bad effects on others. If a political or ethical theory can't give us any guidance on deciding questions like that then it is almost useless. Questions of distributive justice especially call for decisions between conflicting interests - if some get more others get less. So the effect on the happiness of mankind generally will be the

Politique et société John Rawls Biographie en résumé
Malgré tous ses accomplissements, John Borden (Bordley) Rawls était resté pratiquement inconnu jusqu'à ce qu'il publie, en 1971, The Theory of Justice . Il a au cours de sa carrière enseigné à Princeton, Oxford, Cornell, Harvard, jusqu'en 1995, quand la maladie l'a forcé à diminuer son activité. Ce qui ne l'a pas empêché de compléter The Laws of People , où il exprime avec force ses arguments sur le libéralisme politique. Vie et oeuvre
Ce philosophe américain, auteur de The Theory of Justice , même s'il se présente lui-même comme le continuateur de Locke et de Kant, se situe d'abord dans la sphère d'influence de la philosophie analytique contemporaine. Tout lien avec l'idée d'une justice transcendante a été rompu. La justice est un projet purement humain. Pour la défininir, Rawls imagine une situation originelle imaginaire dans laquelle l'être humain est considéré abstraction faite de son incarnation dans une situation réelle. Sa raison l'amènera dit Rawls non seulemement à vouloir défendre ses intérêts personnels mais à penser que ses intérêts personnels seront encore mieux servis si ceux de tous les autres sont également satisfaits. Étant dans une situation imaginaire, notre Juste ne sait pas si dans une situation réelle, il serait du côté des défavorisés ou des nantis. La même raison l'amènera, dans le même mouvement, à reconnaître que certains biens primaires (logement, nourriture, sécurité) doivent être généralement satisfaits.

La justice sociale selon john rawls.
http://www.denistouret.net/ideologues/Rawls.html
John Rawls (1921-2002) Les Etats-Unis d'amérique sont la première puissance du monde actuel.
En conséquence certains idéologues entendent légitimer son système social et donc juridique qui est fondé sur l'économie libérale, l'économie capitaliste.
C'est une légitimation qui fait appel au moral, à une certaine morale, qui peut être la morale de la justice sociale selon John Rawls ou la morale de l'heureux capitaliste de Friedrich von Hayek La justice sociale selon John Rawls Les agitations sociales des années soixante (1960) aux Etats-Unis opposent deux catégories de doctrines, celles qui magnifient la liberté, les idéologies libertariennes au sens large (des libertarians ), et celles qui prônent l'égalité, les idéologies communautariennes (des communitarians Le philosophe John Rawls ( ) s'est fait une réputation mondiale en essayant une synthèse entre liberté et égalité, persuadé que la démocratie libérale peut être juste ( ), qu'elle peut connaître la justice sociale ( John Rawls est convaincu que le régime politique le plus juste, celui qui se rapproche le plus du régime idéal, le régime qui prend le mieux en compte les valeurs de liberté et d'égalité, ainsi que quelques autres valeurs fondamentales comme la valeur de tolérance, est la démocratie libérale. Rawls est un américain pragmatique qui veut fonder une politique raisonnable, c'est à dire formuler l'ensemble des régles que chacun, dans la vie sociale, doit observer s'il veut que les autres les observent aussi. Rawls se présente donc comme étant un disciple de Kant.
