A study on ethical priority of right in social constructivism

Social structuralism on Rawls` concept knows ethical objectivity as the product of a social view established harmoniously and with widespread consent. On this basis, cognition cannot be known as a reflection of objective reality, but it is a dynamic structure mentally experienced. Rawls, relying on this epistemological approach, explains the distinction between right and good, and priority of the ethical right over the ideas of the good. In this paper, explaining the concepts of social good, natural good and natural right shows that Rawls claim is opposed to critique from various aspects including belief in pure will and construction, restricted role of pure will and reason in the process of authorization, and giving idealistic priority to mind, negating objective correspondence of ethical concepts and reducing ethical statements to reasonability.
