Abstract

Justice is one of the fundamental concepts that various schools of thought have paid special attention to.
John Rawls, a leading philosopher of ethics and politics in the field of Western political thought, is one of the thinkers who tried to think about justice.
Political and social events in the United States, in the realm of the world and in the War of Independence, Rawlsaraba raised the question of what factors have led a country like the United States to an unjust and aggressive system in the world.
These preoccupations strengthened his will to formulate an influential theory of political thought. The essence of Rawls's thought in the theory of justice has four key elements: Moral intuitionism is a mental experiment, the main state and freedom. His Theory of Justice is a reflection of his view of justice as fairness and political justice, in which justice as fairness, legal freedom, and the concept of distributive justice are discussed. Rawls's justice is rooted in St. Kant's. Therefore, it emphasizes the moral concept of justice and finally reaches political justice under criticism in a turn. The main question in this study is what factors have contributed to the formation of John Rawls' theory of justice? And the hypothesis is that her philosophical justice system, philosophy of ethics, Kant's theory of social contract, and Hegel's philosophy of law contributed to the formation of her theory of political justice, influential critiques, political radicals, and socialists.(feminine)
