This is a 20 page paper discussing the political philosophies of John Rawls and their applications in today’s society. The political philosophies of John Rawls have included the aspects of theories of justice, justice as fairness, and political liberalism which are all used in the moral rights of citizens and the structure of society to provide social justice and equal human rights. Within the structure of society, Rawls believes that representatives from every generation should be allowed to bargain for an agreement of principles in societies but must all agree on two major principles: one, that each person has the absolute right to basic liberties and freedoms; and, two that social and economic inequalities can occur with fair competition but the inequalities must always benefit the least advantaged in society. Although Rawls has received some criticism on his philosophies over the years, largely because he does not stipulate which ends are to be met in society but only the process which must take place in the bargaining aspect of social justice, his theories have been used in relation to many modern issues including the fight for the rights of minorities, women, religious tolerance, sexual preference, family issues and special education.
