Desigualdad, pobreza y desarrollo. El reto de la justicia distributiva en el pensamiento de John Rawls

Abstract

In this paper I analyze how Rawls approaches material inequalities, both within democratic societies and in his reflections on the law of peoples. In this regard, considerations such as his positive valuation of social inequality or his inattention to the economic development of peoples, lead me to conclude that Rawls supports a conservative position regarding such problems as poverty or global development.
