Abstract |
Edmundson has written an admirably concise yet powerful book. It blends a critical account of
Rawls’ work with an original case for democratic socialism hewn from Rawlsian stone. In my
opinion, this case has some flaws but it remains a timely contribution to the enduring quest for
justice and social stability.
