Question

Discuss the two principles of justice as mentioned by rawls. Do you think rawls theory of justice is relevant for the third world countries

Answer 1

These principles are lexically ordered, and Rawls emphasizes the priority of liberty. The first principle is often called the greatest equal liberty principle. The second, until (b), the difference principle and the final addendum in (b) the equal opportunity principle. I believe that these principles are not fully consistent with the relevance for third countries, since in most Third World countries, citizens have the same rights and freedoms, which in turn emphasizes the relevance of the second principle.
