      Does Rawls (or anyone else) explicitly defend the use of humankind as the relevant range on which to run the Veil of Ignorance function?

      ..if youre going to chunk it that discretely-- excluding higher primates & including lower humans-- it seems like a theology is baked in.

      Rawls' unit of analysis re: original position/veil of ignorance ="society", typically a nation-state,extending prior social contract theory.

      Rawls explicitly rejects extension of approach to internat'l distributive justice ie beyond a given political unit. https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/international-justice/ …

      Rawls would have had no problem excluding those not within existing social contract frameworks from his veil of ignorance function.

      Excellent, i did not remember him drawing that distinction.

      It's interesting how cosmopolitan universalists apply Rawlsian distributive fairness args WITHOUT a particular social contract underpinning.

      Which gets back to your original observation/question; there must be a humanist theology baked in, otherwise what is principle of exclusion?

      The universalist Rawls honestly sounds more defensible, given the obvious issues with social contract.

      (but i should really go back & read his actual argument before continuing to talk out my ass.)

          As someone stupid enough to have read *all* of A Theory of Justice, I strongly recommend you don't. (If you must, read the secondary lit.)

          Rawls is a mediocre thinker and a terrible writer to boot.

          In 100 years, Rawls' oeuvre will be seen as a mere systematization of the post-WWII (pre-WWIII) political consensus—nothing more.

          That sounds about right. What thinker from the this time period is your pick for someone they will be talking about?

          Difficult question. For the 70s & 80s, I think Parfit & the French theorists (esp. Foucault) will fare better.

          But the 20th century as whole will be overshadowed by Wittgenstein & Nietzsche.
