John Rawls was arguably the most important political philosopher of
the 20th century. Barely a word of political philosophy is written
today that is not indebted in some way to the philosophical
paradigm that Rawls bequeathed. "Rawls Explained" sets out the
thinker's complex arguments in a way that makes them accessible to
first-time readers of his hugely influential work. Both clear in
its exposition of Rawls' ideas and true to the complex purposes of
his arguments, this book also attends to the variety of objections
that have been made to them. The book is divided into three parts
corresponding to the three books that form the core of Rawls's
theory: "A Theory of Justice, ""Political Liberalism, " and "The
Law of Peoples." Each section of the book ends with a survey of
some of the main criticisms of the arguments coupled with Rawls's
strongest counterarguments.
