摘要
合理契約論主張以「合理同意」作為政治道德 (political morality) 的基礎。它的基本要旨是說：政治共同體用來證成 (justify) 其基本制度的原則，必須是大家合理同意的對象，或更準確地說，必須是所有成員 (在具有誠意的情況下) 都不能合理拒絕的原則。在合理契約論的基礎上，本文論證，一個民主憲政的社會經濟資源之分配，原則上應該提供每個成員某種最低保障。這我稱之為「在鐸肯式限制下的社會最低保障原則」。本文將合理契約論定位在民主憲政的脈絡中，解釋了什麼是「為民主憲政社會建構的政治哲學」之含意，尤其最重要的，它回答了一個對「在鐸肯式限制下的社會最低保障原則」的根本詰難：它透過考察「在鐸肯式限制下的社會最低保障原則」與「分配正義」之原始意義的關係，論證「在鐸肯式限制下的社會最低保障原則」的確是社會實現「分配正義」的重要條件。

Abstract
Reasonable contractarianism, as a conception of political morality, insists that a political community should be able to defend the arrangement of its basic institutions on the basis of those principles that no one, when properly motivated, could reasonably reject. In this paper, I put forward the thesis that in a constitutional democracy, social and economic resources should be distributed in a way that provides the highest level of social minimum for all, subject to the Dworkinian constraint. Further, I argue that this thesis is consistent with the precept of justice that one ought to get what one is due.
