Abstract

The following article approaches the topic of the sense of justice in the theory of John Rawls. This resource is essential to achieve a just society, so the sense of justice allows us to understand the moral sentiments that, while remaining rational, encourage  mutual cooperation and solidarity. Thus, the sense of justice stands as an appeal —raised as a virtue— that shows the importance of education to achieve peaceful resolutions.
