The Incoherence Between Rawls's Theories Of Justice, Thomas W. Pogge Jan 2004

The Incoherence Between Rawls's Theories Of Justice, Thomas W. Pogge

Fordham Law Review

Would it be desirable to reform the global institutional order in conformity with the principles Rawls defends in A Theory on Justice? Rawls himself denies this and proposes a different moral theory (The Law of Peoples) for the relations among self-governing peoples. While sharing a questionable, purely recipient-oriented approach, his two theories differ importantly in substance and structure. The former gives weight only to the interests of individual persons, yet the latter gives no weight to these interests at all. The former theory is three-tiered and institutional, centering on a public criterion of justice that is justified through a contractualist …

On Actualizing Public Reason, Michael Baur Jan 2004

On Actualizing Public Reason, Michael Baur

Fordham Law Review

In this Essay, I examine some apparent difficulties with what I call the "actualization criterion" connected to Rawls's notion of public reason, that is, the criterion for determining when Rawlsian public reason is concretely actualized by citizens in their deliberating and deciding about constitutional essentials and matters of basic justice.

My reading involves the claim that Rawlsian public reason is to be understood essentially as an imperative or an ideal, and as …
