that of ignorance. In war it can mean life or death‚ and in everyday life if you ignore the problem or person long enough it can destroy your life or the life of someone very close to you or that you are trying to protect. This is an idea that both Tim O’Brian and Carl Deuker explore in their books‚ The Things They Carried and Gym Candy‚ respectively.

It is also important to cite Rawls’s conception of the ‘Veil of Ignorance’‚ which is part of Rawls earlier work. As Ben Rogers point out whilst analysing Rawls’s work‚ ‘The veil of ignorance is meant to ensure that our views on justice are not distorted by our own interests’ (…). In the case of the Iranian Revolution‚ it would have been valued if the Islamists would have adopted the veil of ignorance when writing the constitution.

I do not believe the Middle Ages reflected darkness or embodied ignorance. Even though this period had centuries to produce new technology‚ they still contributed in the molding of today’s society.
