Document Summary
Takeaway from stone chapter 1: the nature of the group in the polis is different, groups in politics are more permanent than groups in an economic sense. Who you buy from today you may not buy from tomorrow. Not the same as religion of politics sense of permanence: natural tendency to take this lens, democratic process seen as the same kind of forces that act in the economy. Stone"s chapter 2: balancing act to maintain equality, tension between equality and equity: Distinguishes between the scope including bare minimum in the scope. Scope expands as the chapter goes on: rawls nozick debate quotas etc. Rawls end-result disadvantaged backgrounds are given. Clashes with process what kind of processes are fair, hiring practices etc. Rawls (cid:498)veil of ignorance(cid:499): when you start in life you don"t and what you"re going to born into. Either the outcome or the process must trump the other know what your place in society is, ignorant about your future.
