This review is from: Liberalism and the Limits of Justice (Paperback)
A dense but not a difficult read, Sandel's Liberalism and the Limits of Justice (LLJ) is a useful introduction to political and moral reasoning. The primary purpose of the book is to bring to the forefront the fundamental weaknesses of the liberalist position as according to Rawls, which LLJ succeeds in doing. The book is, however, not a full-on frontal assault on Rawlsian Liberalism, but a thought provoking challenge to its assumptions and logical inconsistencies. Particularly enguaging is the discussion of the notion of Personhood and how Rawls wavers on his application of that concept to his concept of Justice.
