Description
- John Rawls puts forward the following question for judging whether the law is fair: “What rules would be fair for me and everyone else when we are entirely ignorant of our characteristics, talents, desires, or circumstances?” To employ this concept properly, imagine: “I could be rich, poor, talented, less talented, attractive, less attractive, in the majority, or the minority, etc, etc, etc.”
- The veil of ignorance can be used to evaluate the many principles and rules necessary to complete the entirety of the legal jurisprudence.
