 There are three additional arguments Rawls makes to support justice as fairness (all in TJ, sect. 29). Each of these depends on the concept of a “well-ordered society.” The ideal of a well-ordered society is Rawls’s development of social contract doctrine. It is a society in which (1) everyone willingly accepts and affirms the same principles of justice; (2) these principles are successfully realized in basic social institutions, including laws and conventions, and are generally complied with by citizens; and (3) reasonable persons are morally motivated to comply by their sense of justice – they want to do what justice requires of them (TJ 4–5, §69). Rawls says at various points that a well-ordered society is a “perfectly just society.” (TJ 9) The parties in the original position choose principles that are to govern a perfectly just well-ordered society where everyone agrees, complies with, and wants to comply with its principles of justice. There are then two sides to Rawls’s social contract. The parties in the original position have the task of agreeing to principles that all rationally can accept under the circumstances of the original position. But their rational choice is partially determined by the principles that free and equal moral persons in a well ordered society reasonably can accept and agree to as the basic principles governing their social and political relations.
