Sažetak
In this paper the author has tried to describe the relationship between Rawls’ concept of the person, social cooperation and political education. Rawls precisely links political education with the liberal political outlook and not to life in general. Hence the importance for his theory of the notion of “reasonable pluralism” and the reasonably disagreeing conceptions of a good life. The author has tried to show that for Rawls it is the concept of the reasonable individual that is the goal of political education, i.e. the ability of a person to adopt the fundamental principles of justice as the conditions for social cooperation, while the “burdens of judgement” are the source and the framework of fundamental political virtues (toleration, respect, reciprocity, politeness, etc.) that Rawls promotes and considers important for the idea of the public reason, i.e. a sort of deliberative democracy, as well as for the very existence and stability of a political system. Thus Rawls got involved in the debate on the conception of liberal virtues and the possibility of their political socialization and education.
