In 1971 John Rawls's A Theory of Justice transformed
twentieth-century political philosophy, and it ranks among the most
influential works in the history of the subject. This volume of new
essays marks the 50th anniversary of its publication with a
multi-faceted exploration of Rawls's most important book. A team of
distinguished contributors reflects on Rawls's achievement in
essays on his relationship to modern political philosophy and
20th-century economic theory, on his Kantianism, on his transition
to political liberalism, on his account of public reason and
contemporary challenges to it, on his theory's implications for
problems of racial justice, on democracy and its fragility, and on
Rawls's enduring legacy. The volume will be valuable for students
and scholars working in moral and political philosophy, political
theory, legal theory, and religious ethics.
