Abstract: Review. In his book A Theory of Justice published in 1971, J.

Abstract: The rejection of traditional political ideologies, as a reaction to their shortcomings, led during the last century to a succession of ideas from philosophers looking for new ways. Rather than the coarseness of previous abstract ideas, the reality of modern life demands unconditional understanding and respect. To understand what is simple - the reality of life - we must not […]
