JOHN RAWLS: A THEORY OF JUSTICE

What i expect to learn: I want to know more about the theory of justice

Qoute: “When this changes, expectations change. I assume that expectations are connected: by raising the prospect of the representative man in one position we presumable increase or decrease the prospects of representative men in other

positions.”

Be given with the advantages or privileges he has. And that as a master himself should consider those lower people as slaves that he shouldn’t interact with them or he would be considered himself immoral at the instance of touching a slave or even having a glimpse with the slave with eye to eye contact. As a master himself he develops a ability or being a moral model to those who know him and that he should act morally all the time. As to exercise this ability he needs some kind of test subject or something that is lower than him.

From the past up to today we still have this kind of comparison with the level of wealth people have or status they’ve gained through heredity. Well with this review it is applied as to how people would act to other people depending on what their status is. Friedrich describes Master morality as a person who is noble who has the right as to whatever he thinks his world conquers with and that those lower than him shouldn’t, Well obviously this would be contradicting as to what people are fighting for the past decades and that we should know that this shouldn’t be used today because of a democratic world that dominates over other possible master and slave thinking.

What I’ve learned:

I’ve learned that justice prevail over any issues one has as long as the person is aware of the consequence he do.

Integrative Question:

  1. How did Justice affect the morality of others?
  2. Is justice applicable to everyone?
  3. How did this review help you?
