2:59Now PlayingHow Does Rawls Address Inequality? In this informative video, we will discuss John Rawls' approach to addressing inequality within a fair society. Rawls presents a structured theory of justice that intertwines political freedom with equitable social and economic arrangements. His framework outlines two main principles that guide how societies can ensure individual rights while also tackling disparities.
We will explore the first principle, which emphasizes the importance of equal rights to basic liberties for all individuals. This principle asserts that no one should have to sacrifice their freedoms for economic or social gains. The second principle introduces the difference principle, which allows for social and economic inequalities only if they benefit the least advantaged members of society.
Additionally, we will examine Rawls' concept of fair equality of opportunity, which ensures that everyone has a genuine chance to succeed, regardless of their background. By presenting the original position and the veil of ignorance, Rawls provides a method for determining justice impartially.
Join us as we break down these complex ideas and their implications for creating a just society. Don't forget to subscribe to our channel for more informative discussions on liberalism and social justice.
