摘要：B 0th of these books are seminal contributions to the sub-genre of contmctarian social philosophy. Gaudier's represents the culmination and synthesis of over nvo decades of work scattered throughout manyjournals and anthologies, while Lomasky's work, not unlike Nozick's Ana~chy, State, and Ut@ia, emerges in full form with little prior journal exposure. They also differ radically in style and method, although they share a common destination: a contractarian derivation of neo-liberal rights and institutions. Before examining each work separately, it behooves us to see what they share in common. Both take radicd exception to a prevailing meta-etliical doctrine, which Gauthier labels universalism and Lomasky terms impal-tiality. Gauthier contrasts the universalistic conception of rationality with what he calls the muximizing conception, the latter of which he endorses.
