| Title | Individual Choice and Responsibility in the Backdrop of Just Institution |
| Summary | One of the major problems in liberal egalitarian distributive justice is of unfair disadvantage. There are many theoretical approaches to deal with the problem. One approach is to hold people responsible where they ought to be. In the wake, people can be compensated where they are unfairly disadvantaged. This research endeavors to analyze different perspectives in the realm of responsibility-sensitive justice and suggest a possible way out of it. A special consideration has to be made for the unchangeable liberal egalitarian principles, which in this research is “equal concern” for all the people in the society. Conclusively, my research will favor an amended view of Dworkin’s theory, which I consider it more aligned to the element of responsibility as well as the principle of equal concern. |
