Abstract

The present article attempts to focus its analyses on the philosophical consequences concerning the equal liberty principle exposed by the north american philosopher John Rawls in the book A theory of justice, essentially in the way to verify the supporting structure and the formal and material development of them. In this way it becomes imperious the analysis of the liberal philosophical grounds which Rawls used to construct his principle of justice: in this work, fundamentally John Locke. After, this paper established one short verification about the lexical priority of the equal liberty principle in face to the second principle of justice for the rawlsian system of justice as fairness, to deal with his value and with the rights slides from them, with the objective to outline the mainly characteristics of liberty in A theory of justice.
