John Rawls

John Borden (Bordley) Rawls (Baltimore (Maryland), 21 febrewaris 1921 – Lexington (Massachusetts), 24 novimber 2002) wie in Amerikaansk filosoof dy't benammen bekend waard troch syn etyske en politike filosofy. Hy wie as polityk filosoof ferbûn oan de Harvard University en wurdt om syn haadwurk A Theory of Justice en besibbe publikaasjes algemien beskôge as de meast ynfloedrike politike filosoof fan de 20e iuw.

It begryp ‘sosjale rjochtfeardichheid’ spile in grutte rol yn syn tinken. Hy bepleitet in sterke beskerming fan grûnrjochten en –frijheden foar elkenien. Sosjale of ekonomyske ûngelykheid is inkel dan akseptabel, as elkenien likense kânsen hat om in hegere posysje te berikken en as de minstbedielden absolút foardiel hawwe fan de relative ûngelykheid.
