Values. These are recognized as the constituents of a good life, which is made good
Definition of through personal satisfaction and the moral merit that values embody.
Terms Justice. It is the guide that regulates how people live as members of a given
community.

(Situation/Question/ Answer)

1. Why are some values incommensurable and incompatible?

The idea of incommensurability refers to ideas that are so unalike that they cannot be compared,
such as euthanasia and giving birth. Similarly, an individual may want to enjoy something that has a value
that is incompatible with his or her other values. For example, a person may have a hobby that requires so
much time and energy that he or she cannot spend quality time with his or her family.

Incommensurable and incompatible values are given comparisons in our lives. These two are like
spices that compliments of having a good life. Though conflicting but these two are essential elements in
our lives that are necessary in living a happy life. A good life unavoidably includes losing something
valuable. A person may value justice and friendship. Justice requires impartiality, whereas friendship
requires partiality. Therefore, to treat a friend justly creates a tension.
2. What does John Rawls mean when he asserts that justice is fairness?

The basic premise of Rawls’s theory is that the best principles of justice for the basic structure of
any society are those that would be the object of an original agreement in the establishment of a society.
These principles would be derived by free, rational persons as an initial position of equality; they would
form the basis for all future agreements and would specify social cooperation and forms of government.

This theoretical construct is a guide for evaluating the fairness of contemporary life. In all western
societies, the original agreements are long past and constitute a faint glimmer in the society’s collective
consciousness. Only in the most primitive societies might there come an opportunity to simulate original
agreements. In sub societies, however, there is the possibility of simulating, albeit in an imperfect way,
original agreements on justice.
