The theories of justice developed by Rawls, Sen and Nussbaum are
examined in this book, which sets a goal to perform a comparative
analysis of these theories and to demonstrate their mutual
relationships. All three liberal theories significantly enrich the
set of fundamental principles of morality that concerns the sphere
of political action. The novelty of the Sen's and Nussbaum's
capability approach in comparison with Rawls is that they discuss
the problem of social justice on a global scale in their own
original way. They do not try to extend and adjust the two
principles of justice to the whole mankind nor they treat the
difference principle as to be applied everywhere. Instead, they
present their own cosmopolitan ways to apply their theories of
justice to take into account issues which are neglected or
insufficiently developed by Rawls, such as global inequalities, the
discrimination of women, the rights of people with disabilities and
animal rights. These theories can be described as answer to this
crucial objection towards the Rawls' work that this theory of
justice does not solve these important global problems.
