Abstract

John Rawls, being one of the most important political philosophers of the twentieth century, has influenced most of the theorist of his time, including feminists with his theory of justice. Feminists finding liberal thinkers’ gendered family justice approaches problematic saw a similar problem in Rawls’s theory of justice. In this paper, the feminist critiques towards the concept of family embedded in Rawls’s works will be discussed in chronological order.
