This book develops John Rawls's theory of justice by adding
reality-based analyses. This is accomplished by answering the
question of who makes rules and how, and by providing new answers
to three of today's most practical and critical issues. The
question of who and how makes rules is discussed first; and group
orientation instead of individualism, and a balance of negotiating
power instead of a veil of ignorance are presented as new answers
to this question. Based on this new understanding of rulemaking,
three important practical rules are subsequently discussed: the
rule of distribution of land and other natural resources, including
the question of natural talent or who should bear the costs of
children's education; the rule of distribution of products; and
what motives support our acts of kindness. These rules are all
dealt with from a shared perspective, viewing society as a single
integrated construct. Equal distribution of land, not private but
public payment of education fees, strengthening employees'
bargaining power, and moving toward nobility-based kindness are put
forward as central answers. By addressing critical questions on
social rules and proposing answers, this book provides reliable
principles to fall back on in our daily lives, and in our rapidly
changing, globalized world.
