Definición

  • Contractualism is a moral theory that attempts to give an account of the content of our moral duties (including political obligations) and what ultimately grounds or justifies these duties. According to traditional forms of contractualism, the content and justification of morality are based on some kind of contract or agreement among those in the moral domain.
