Synopsis

Amartya Sen challenges conventional theories of justice, proposing an alternative framework that emphasizes public reason and acknowledges the inherent pluralities in defining what makes societies less unjust. He argues that rather than seeking a single, definitive answer, we should embrace divergent viewpoints to construct a more inclusive theory of justice. Sen extends this discussion to address global injustices, urging a move beyond parochial concerns.
