Collected Papers

John Rawls's work on justice has perhaps drawn more commentary and aroused wider attention than any other work in moral or political philosophy in the 20th century. This is a collection of his essays, some of which articulate views of justice and liberalism distinct from those found in his books. They are important in themselves because of deep issues about the nature of justice and moral reasoning, and liberlism they raise, as well as for the light they shed on the evolution of Rawls's views.
