Justice

Michael J. Sandel

A Bridge of Ideas

Despite the seemingly disparate domains of religious doctrine and political philosophy, both James E. Talmage's 'The Vitality of Mormonism' and Michael J. Sandel's 'Justice' reveal a profound shared concern with the *architecture of societal good*. You can see echoes of Talmage's exploration of righteous order and divine principles in Sandel's dissection of distributive justice and the moral underpinnings of social arrangements, suggesting a surprising universal quest for the most ethical and functional human collective.
