Definition(s)
- Public reason is a moral ideal requiring that political decisions be reasonably justifiable or acceptable from each individual's viewpoint. Given the plurality of moral, ethical, and religious doctrines that characterize liberal democratic societies, public reason represents an attempt to develop a shared framework for our political deliberations that each person can endorse.
