| 520 | |a This article examines the moral understanding of Rawls’s "justice as fairness" and the pre-colonial Nguni concept of ubuntu in the search for both areas of convergence and dissonance, and to see what scholars of justice might learn in the process. While Rawls’s justice as fairness is the product of a constructivist approach in Western philosophy along the lines of the traditional social contract theory, ubuntu is a philosophy with backgrounds in the communal, ethical practices of some Eastern and Southern African societies. Beyond the juxtaposition arising from differing methodologies, historical or theoretical developments, and jurisprudential applications, our findings demonstrate that both justice as fairness and ubuntu reflect the commonality of shared human conditions and experiences that attempt to answer moral questions arising from the quiddity of persons. | ||
