 The PJP ties itself to two essential concepts: publicity and stability. A law that achieves stability and publicity may thereby count as publicly justified. In other cases, theorists see reaching publicity and stability as theoretical merits—considerations that favor their approach to public justification over others. If a version of the PJP conflicts with publicity, that could refute the specification. Other factors can count against this specification of the PJP. But publicity and stability are central to public justification, so we explore connections.
