From the supplier: John Rawls' concept of law, as detailed in his 1993 work 'Political Liberalism,' is distinguished from his classic 1971 work 'A Theory of Justice' by greater acknowledgement of pluralism and the political aspects of justice. However, his 1993 work will not have the impact on constitutional law that the 1971 work did. Rawls' more recent work addresses legal issues more directly but fails to develop a coherent model for judicial decision-making. He cannot fully resolve how morality influences the formation of laws and whose morality to use.
