Content:
Critics have maintained that John Rawls's theory of justice is unrealistic and undemocratic. Andrius Gališanka's incisive intellectual biography argues that in misunderstanding the origins and development of Rawls's argument, previous narratives fail to explain the novelty of his philosophical approach and so misunderstand his political vision.
