  1. Religion and women’s rights: Susan Moller Okin, Mary Wollstonecraft, and the multiple feminist liberal traditions.Eileen Hunt Botting & Ariana Zlioba - 2018 - History of European Ideas 44 (8):1169-1188.
    ABSTRACTWe trace Susan Moller Okin’s reception of Mary Wollstonecraft with respect to the relationship between religion and feminist liberalism, by way of manuscripts housed at Somerville College, Oxford and Harvard University. These unpublished documents – dated from 1967 to 1998 – include her Somerville advising file, with papers dated from 1967 to 1979; her 1970 Oxford B.Phil. thesis on the feminist political theory of Wollstonecraft, William Thompson, and J.S. Mill; her teaching notes on Wollstonecraft originating in 1978, for her course (...)

  • Шлях до «теорії справедливості»: Праці джона ролза 1940-х — початку 1950-х років.Леонід Фінберг - 2022 - Filosofska Dumka 2022 (1):23-35.
    За багато років, що минули з того часу, як Джон Ролз видав свою працю «Теорія справедли- вості», в академічних колах сформувалося і набуло великого поширення ставлення до Ролзової теорії як до нового етапу розвитку локівсько-кантівської ліберальної традиції. Однак після того, як нещодавно було відкрито для дослідників папери Ролза в Архіві Гар вард- ського університету, стало зрозуміло, що усталене уявлення є не зовсім точним. Вивчення ранніх праць Ролза, значна частина яких залишається неопублікованими, дало змогу об’єм- ніше побачити етапи та особливості формування (...)

  • On John Rawls's a Brief Inquiry Into the Meaning of Sin and Faith.Paul Weithman - 2012 - Journal of Religious Ethics 40 (4):557-582.
    ABSTRACT This essay challenges the view that John Rawls's recently published undergraduate thesis A Brief Inquiry into the Meaning of Sin and Faith provides little help in understanding his mature work. Two crucial strands of Rawls's Theory of Justice are its critique of teleology and its claims about our moral nature and its expression. These strands are brought together in a set of arguments late in Theory which are important but have attracted little sustained attention. I argue that the target (...)

  • John Rawls and R. M. Hare: A Study of Canonization.Bruce Kuklick - 2022 - Analyse & Kritik 44 (1):87-110.
    Why is someone enduringly prized as a philosopher? To answer this question, this historical case study examines the intersecting careers of John Rawls and R. M. Hare. It looks at their writings, a complex chain of disagreements, the argumentative dimension. The essay moreover explores the clash of differing temperaments. Finally, themes in addition to ratiocination and personality are factored in: the leanings of the institutions that control access to intellectual endeavor; the public square—politics widely conceived—into which the two men were (...)

  • John Rawls.Leif Wenar - 2008 - Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy.
    justice as fairness envisions a society of free citizens holding equal basic rights cooperating within an egalitarian economic system. His account of political liberalism addresses the legitimate use of political power in a democracy, aiming to show how enduring unity may be achieved despite the diversity of worldviews that free institutions allow. His writings on the law of peoples extend these theories to liberal foreign policy, with the goal of imagining how a peaceful and tolerant international order might be possible.

  • Ideal Theory after Auschwitz? The Practical Uses and Ideological Abuses of Political Theory as Reconciliation.Benjamin McKean - 2017 - Journal of Politics 79 (4):1177-1190.
    Contemporary debates about ideal and nonideal theory rest on an underlying consensus that the primary practical task of political theory is directing action. This overlooks other urgent practical work that theory can do, including showing how injustice can be made bearable and how resisting it can be meaningful. I illustrate this important possibility by revisiting the purpose for which John Rawls originally developed the concept of ideal theory: reconciling a democratic public to living in a flawed world that may otherwise (...)
