Rawlsian Fairness

Rawlsian fairness is a principle from philosopher John Rawls that suggests society should be organized in a way that benefits everyone, especially the least advantaged. It proposes a "original position" where people choose rules without knowing their own social status, ensuring fairness and impartiality. The idea is to prioritize improving conditions for those with the least advantages, creating a just society where inequalities are allowed only if they benefit everyone. This approach emphasizes fairness, equity, and protection for the most vulnerable members of society.
