We discuss game-theoretic interpretations of Rawls's theory of justice with special reference to the choice of the most appropriate solution concept. We show that Core-like solution concepts, as the one proposed by Laden (1991, Philosophy and Public Affairs, 20, 189-222), have undesirable implications in this context. The "Bargaining Set" has more satisfactory properties for any contractualistic approach.

Abstract
We discuss game-theoretic interpretations of Rawls's theory of justice with special reference to the choice of the most appropriate solution concept. We show that Core-like solution concepts, as the one proposed by Laden (1991, Philosophy and Public Affairs, 20, 189-222), have undesirable implications in this context. The "Bargaining Set" has more satisfactory properties for any contractualistic approach.File in questo prodotto:
