Abstract

The aim of this paper is to show that Rawls’s conception of distributive justice goes beyond allocative justice and has sound arguments to deal with claims for recognition. I suggest that some critics of the distributive paradigm confuse “allocative justice” and “distributive justice”. In doing so, they not only reduce Rawls’s conception of primary goods to economic factors, but they also fail to grasp the moral and political perspective of the Rawlsian project, thus cutting out essential dimensions of justice. At the end of this paper, I discuss the Rawlsian concepts of reciprocal recognition and self-respect in order to present a conception of distributive justice able to meet these questions.

Keywords: Rawls, allocative justice, distributive justice, reciprocal recognition, selfrespect.
