Choosing Justice: An Experimental Approach to Ethical Theory: 22 (California Series on Social Choice and Political Economy) - Hardcover

Reseña del editor

This book presents an answer to the question "What is fair?" In their approach to ethics, the authors argue that much of the empirical methodology of the natural sciences should be applied to the ethical questions of fairness and justice. Moving ethical theorizing out of the armchair and into the laboratory, the authors test John Rawl's theory of distributive justice with cross-national experiments from Canada, Poland and the USA.
