Examine how a distribution of goods came about

Reference no: EM133313973

Question: When it comes to the question of whether any given social arrangement is just, Rawls argues that we needn't examine how a distribution of goods came about, but only the end result. Nozick disagrees. He argues that the current distribution of goods is irrelevant, and all that matters is how a distribution came about. Which view do you find most convincing, and why? (Note: you may also disagree with both; but in that case, you need to explain what alternative view you endorse, and why.)
