 The most powerful objection to the PJP is that it allows too many reasons to defeat proposed laws. The objection applies to various interpretations of the PJP. But critics direct it most often at the convergence views. (Eberle 2012; Enoch 2015, though see Schultz-Bergin 2021) By allowing diverse defeaters into public justification, few proposals reach public justification. Few states can engage in their most basic functions. Some public reason liberals admit that public justification is often beyond us. (Rawls 2005, D’Agostino 2006). We may need some degree of social development to establish a publicly justified polity. (Rawls 2005).
