Theory of Justice

The Theory of Justice, particularly in contractarianism, suggests that justice arises from an implicit social agreement among individuals. Imagine people coming together to create rules for society, aiming to protect their rights and ensure fairness. Each person would choose these rules while imagining they could be in anyone's position, promoting equality and protecting the vulnerable. This approach emphasizes that a just society is one where rules are agreed upon to benefit all, aiming to balance individual freedoms with collective responsibility, ensuring everyone has a fair chance at a good life.
