Lecture course
"Introduction to doctrines on justice"

The course explores the political and legal doctrines that are important to understanding contemporary debates about justice. It is perhaps impossible to describe the huge number of views on justice that have been expressed even only in the XXth century. But this course will be useful for those who want to learn more about one of the most popular approaches to the issues of justice today, namely the Kantian (deontological) approach.
