Cohen's Critical Study Of Rawls's View Of Justice

The critical research in Rawls that doing by G.A.Cohen affects profoundly in western academic community.Not only the research expressed the theorerical achievement in the study of Cohen's political philosophy,but also the research provided the systematic critic for studying Rawls' view of justice.The critic of Rawls' view of justice is the ultimate critic for liberal political philosophy.Firstly,the critic of self-ownership proved mix of self-ownership and autonomous right.After the proof,Cohen thought freedom and equality is compatible.Afterward,Cohen pointed out the theory of self-ownership is not the successful critic for equal doctrine.Cohen hoped to reconstruct the community of equal access advantage.Cohen also wanted to confirm the currency of equality again by the reconstruction.After expounding these essential theoretical background.I investigate the rule of non sensitive to facts that critiquing the principle of justice in the form.Analyzing the unique theoretical value in the critic of justicial structure.In the critic of Pareto Optimality and incentive argumentation.Exposing the moral arbitrariness in principle of discrepancy.In the critic for sense of justice,to discern the positive effection that justicial fashion for respecting personal option.At last,I approve the theoretical contribution in Marxist philosophy and the critic of liberal philosophy.I also discern the drawback that Cohen attached importance to formal justice but neglected substantial justice.To confirm the unilateral understanding in the function of psychogenesis that was advocated by Cohen.
