Rawls at 100

Joshua Cohen, Boston Review, Feb 24, 2021

There's a lot of John Rawls in contemporary online learning theory and practice, though it takes being fluent in his philosophy to see the connection. This volume of Boston Review, which celebrates Rawls's 100th birthday, will help with that. The articles are short(ish) and accessible, and get to the heart of diverse elements of his writing, from the discussion of the Kantian 'respect for persons' in Vivian Gornik's piece, to a discussion of social justice by three authors, to a celebration of baseball by John Rawls himself.
