Abstract
Le présent article vise à reconstruire la lecture que Rawls fait du Second Discours et du Contrat social de Rousseau sur les thèmes de l’amour-propre, de l’autonomie, de la volonté générale et de la stabilité. L’objectif est ainsi de mieux comprendre l’héritage rousseauiste dans la pensée politique rawlsienne. Lorsque Rawls développe les notions de liberté et de sens de la justice dans Théorie de la justice, de raison publique et de citoyenneté dans Libéralisme politique et d’utopie réaliste dans Le Droit des peuples, il s’inspire en grande partie de sa lecture de la philosophie sociale et politique du penseur du XVIIIe siècle. L’idée est donc de lire Rawls dans le sillage de Rousseau, de montrer comment il s’est réapproprié certaines de ses thèses et certains de ses concepts afin d’en proposer quelque chose d’original et de profondément riche.
This article reconstructs Rawls’s reading of Rousseau’s Second discourse and Social contract by focusing on the topics of self-esteem, autonomy, the general will, and stability. The aim is to better understand the Rousseauian legacy in Rawls’ political thought. When Rawls develops the notions of liberty and the sense of justice in A Theory of Justice, of public reason and citizenship in Political Liberalism, and of realistic utopia in The Law of Peoples, he relies to a large extent on his reading of Rousseau’s social and political philosophy. The idea is therefore to read Rawls through his reappropriation of Rousseau’s theses and concepts, and to show that this reappropriation led to something original and profoundly rich.
