Rawls' later work addresses challenges to which principle?

  • Liberty and Priority

  • Free Market

  • Pluralism

  • Political legitimacy

Answer

Political legitimacy is the principle that a government has the right to rule. Rawls' later work addresses challenges to this principle, specifically the challenge that it is based on an unrealistic view of human nature. Rawls argues that even though people are not perfectly rational and self-interested, they can still agree on the principles of justice.
