John Rawls is noted for his contribution to liberal political philosophy. Rawls's political thought has been chosen for study because he has been very influential and his philosophy can be used in interpreting our constitution. The study is based on the "Concept of Person and Society" as exposed by John Rawls. In the "Concept of Person", John Rawls, focuses his attention to develop his arguments are a view of society as a fair system of cooperation and a conception of the person as possessing two moral powers, that is the ability to form and revise one's own conception of the good and to live on fair terms of cooperation with others. Because these particulars conceptions of the person and of society are built into the structure of the original position, selection of principles of justice under these conditions identified them as the most suitable principles for free and equal citizens, possessing the two moral powers, who seeks to live on fair terms of cooperation with others. The complex conception of person and society that Rawls makes use of in his political philosophy is that of a moral person as a free and equal citizen who enters a well-ordered society by birth and exists by death and lives his life in it. For Rawls, his conception of a person represents how the persons conceive of themselves and their social relations in the public political culture of a liberal democratic society.

This work endeavours to examine the notion of public sphere as a preamble to the idea of public discourse and the inherent role of public deliberations within democratic societies. It also intends to probe as to how the need of civil society emerged within public sphere. Or, what can be the reasons that have warranted the shift of civil society from private to public and the kind of wide-ranging implications in such a shift? On the outset, this work will seek to understand the notion of public sphere (mode of Democracy) as originally conceived within socio-political conditions which influenced the processes of public opinion formation. Such an understanding of public sphere will be helpful to develop the changing notion of public sphere and civil society which is not merely limited to neo-liberal tradition. Consequently, this work also intends to analyze certain other relevant concepts such as rationality, radical form of democratic attitude, autonomy, freedom, human rights etc where public sphere has become an act of agent as discursive discourse and are related to the idea of civil society through the history of ideas in the philosophical writings of Jurgen Habermas.

Environmental Jurisprudence's highest achievement is its codification of a change in ethics, and a legal recognition that both individual and governmental agency responsibility extend to the natural world. This article provides an overview of Environmental Jurisprudence as it relates to environmental ethics. It examines both the foundation of Environmental Jurisprudence as well as the concept of human rights. The article also critically discusses international environmental law from the perspective of human rights. This research concludes by arguing that despite the attempt made in the international regime for adding eco-centric values in environmental law, environmental jurisprudence to date has continued with anthropocentric ideas with all concerns for safeguarding the means of human survival.
