Liberalism and the Limits of Justice (repost)

Liberalism and the Limits of Justice By Michael J. Sandel
Publisher: C U P 1998 | 252 Pages | ISBN: 0521562988 , 0521567416 | PDF | 12 MB

A liberal society seeks not to impose a single way of life, but to leave its citizens as free as possible to choose their own values and ends. It therefore must govern by principles of justice that do not presuppose any particular vision of the good life. But can any such principles be found? And if not, what are the consequences for justice as a moral and political ideal? These are the questions Michael Sandel takes up in this penetrating critique of contemporary liberalism. This new edition includes a new introduction and a new final chapter in which Professor Sandel responds to the later work of John Rawls.
