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.
