Is justice an ideal, forever beyond our grasp, or something that may actually guide our practical decisions and enhance our lives?In this wide-ranging book, Amartya Sen presents an alternative approach to mainstream theories of justice which, despite their many specific achievements have taken us, he argues, in the wrong direction in general. At the heart of Sen’s argument is his insistence on the role of public reason in establishing what can make societies less unjust. But it is in the nature of reasoning about justice, argues Sen, that it does not allow all questions to be settled even in theory; there are choices to be faced between alternative assessments of what is reasonable; several different and competing positions can each be well-defended.Far from rejecting such pluralities or trying to reduce them beyond the limits of reasoning, we should make use of them to construct a theory of justice that can absorb divergent points of view. Sen also shows how concern about the principles of justice in the modern world must avoid parochialism, and further, address questions of global injustice. The breadth of vision, intellectual acuity and striking humanity of one of the world's leading public intellectuals have never been more clearly shown than in this remarkable book.

评分阿马蒂亚·森不是专业哲学家,但是每次森发言,哲学家们都竖着耳朵在认真听。2009年森再次向哲学界投出了一颗重磅炸弹——厚达500页的《正义观》(The Idea of Justice),并在伦敦政治与经济学院、哈佛大学和牛津大学等学术重镇展开巡回演讲,所到之处群贤毕至,少长咸集,尽...
评分很长时间以来,我以为我已经彻底与爱慕虚荣说拜拜了,尤其是在学习方面,记得我之前做过的最装13的事儿是刚工作没多久买了一本三联社出版的萨特的《存在与虚无》,装帧设计纸质字迹都非常好,但是拿到手看了第一页我就斯巴达了,从此我发誓再不能装高深,就像那句俗话说的:当...
评分这是自约翰·罗尔斯的《正义论》面世以来,有关正义理论的最重要的论著。诺贝尔经济学奖得主阿马蒂亚·森的这部新著,向我们展示了一种与时俱进的政治哲学,在我们这个动荡不安的世界,我们迫切需要的不是对于正义概念的抽象而无休止的争论,我们应当致力于定义何为非正义,并...
评分为正当的理由杀很多人是不是正义的?三个孩子只有一个笛子,怎么分?给惟一会吹的孩子,最穷的孩子,还是那个制造它的孩子?以上两个问题和其它更多的问题都会本书中得到展示,并给出了各派不同的观点。 有些很让我震惊,比如有人写到“将饥饿的人带到街上和公路上,像杀猪那...
justice should be considered with respect to what actually happens in real world as opposed to metaphysics arguments and idealized concepts
评分Love the introduction. I probably like Nussbaum more than Sen, but they have different perspectives based on their other identities.
评分清晰,有新的东西。
