Economic Theories of Justice
探讨如何将社会正义考量纳入福利经济学，通过分析社会 welfare 函数和个体效用度量，揭示不同正义观（如功利主义、平等主义、自由意志主义）之间的伦理张力与妥协可能。
Social justice considerations are incorporated into welfare economics via properties of the social welfare function and measures of individual utility. The ethical issues underlying various approaches are illustrated through intriguing paradoxes that have emerged in the literature. Such puzzles point to the tensions among certain important values (such as respecting preferences, giving priority to the worse off, personal responsibility, and informational simplicity) and suggest the relevant ways in which reasonable compromise can be sought. Welfare economics is now able to accommodate a large range of conceptions of justice, including utilitarianism and various forms of egalitarianism and libertarianism.
