The question of how to distribute benefits and burdens between
different individuals and groups has exercised some of the greatest
philosophers of the past, and dominates the study of contemporary
political philosophy. This volume brings together some of the most
creative contributions to one of the most intellectually fertile,
and politically significant, areas of debate in practical
philosophy.
Beginning with two classic discussions by Locke and Hume, the
volume then turns to contemporary theories of social justice,
focusing on Rawls, Nozick, Dworkin, and some of their most
influential critics. It concludes with a set of provocative
readings on various specific issues - the family, market
incentives, world poverty, cultural rights, and future generations
- that have extended or challenged common conceptions of
justice.
With an introductory essay and a guide to further reading,
Social Justice will appeal to students in law, politics, and
normative economics, as well as philosophy.
