With reference to Theory of Justice by John Rawls which essentially revolves around the inequalities and injustice. Rawls provided two principles which guides the rational decision making and behaviour. Principle 1 talks about the inequalities implying the positive aspects of practising inequalities. There can be situations where inequalities can be fruitful hence can be leveraged for the same. The second principle talks about equal opportunities such that people deserve to be treated equal and offered equal opportunities to access the liberties. Rawls concentrates on rational people in a closed community without comprehending the bigger picture. Especially, Caren’s in book Aliens and Citizens describes the Rawl's prospective with reference to global outlook to help gauge the open borders. Nevertheless, in my perspective open borders can direct to anti-liberal principles by the virtue of different implications of government policies and overall discipline. Here, the essence lies in displacing utilitarianism as the only ethical philosophy and rather focus on justice with respect to fairness. Ideally, implying fairness is far more stable framework that can implemented to achieve justice. I strongly feel that utilitarian theory of justice comprehends the good in the society while on the other hand Rawl's conceptualisation is based on hypothetical scenarios that works under these two principles of justice. Moreover, Rawl's theory explains the behaviour of individual who have been blinded with their personal desires and situations by the "veil of ignorance". I really like his perspective about dealing with fairness as a political issue rather than metaphysical. What I really appreciate about Rawl is that “He calls a Spade a Spade!” While all other talks at length about having right environment and comprehending the overall situation to act it. On the other hand, Rawl talks about how fairness can become a political agenda and it essential to be driven by leaders who can perform justice to the role.
