 What is the object of public justification? What is the thing that we publicly justify? Answers differ, and we can classify them by their “granularity.” Some exercises of political power and state coercion are small, like legal regulations, while others are broader, like constitutions. If we take laws as our object of justification, we take a fine-grained approach. But if constitutions are our object, we take a coarse-grained approach.
