Recenzje

'The generations that have grown up witnessing regular major recessions in 2008 and 2020 have begun rediscovering Rawls's work and putting it to the more radical purposes it was intended for. This makes the new collection Rawls's A Theory of Justice at 50, edited by Paul Weithman, a welcome contribution.' Matt McManus, Jacobin
