Methods/Rawls: Principles/Intuition/Rawls: A. In the initial position for the establishment of a society, the weighting of principles must be discussed between the individual members. They will aim for a different weighting of their own accord.
B. Another possibility is the lexical order for the execution of principles in an order to be selected.
I 43

>Principles/Rawls.
Problem: in a lexical order, the principles discussed first must have certain limitations so that they do not exclude issues to be addressed later.
Solution/Rawls: to treat the principle of justice as the first principle makes it possible to work on further principles afterwards. This would not be possible if the principle of usefulness were put at the beginning.
I 45
Justice/Principles/Rawls: we should develop a concept of justice that, however influenced by intuition, tends to converge our judgments on justice.
>Justice/Rawls.
