The expansion of John Rawls's theory to encompass international relations reflects the ethical values of his political liberalism & is consistent with his advocacy of freedom of conscience, which his position both fosters & yet circumscribes. Rawls's proviso at the level of political liberalism & his just war thought in the Law of Peoples' global context are problematic from a religious perspective & bring into question the normative compatibility of his theory with that of particular religious tenets. Rawls ultimately & inevitably prioritizes political over religious values, which results in a muting to some extent of religious voices in the public policy sphere. 17 References.
