Thesis (M.A.)--Dalhousie University (Canada), 2003.

The philosophical question providing the focus for this thesis is, "what is the right conception of justice to address oral health needs of elders?" To respond to this question and to work toward developing an ideal conception of health care justice for elders, two models of justice are considered. Norman Daniels' influential liberal approach uses the Rawlsian principle of "fair equality of opportunity" to provide a basis for socially supported health care. This argument rests on the premise that health care needs warrant special consideration as a social good because of health's influence on opportunities for members of society. Identifying measurable needs and the social support required to address those needs becomes an important part of the practical activities of health care. Alternatively, Joan Tronto argues that conventional liberal theory, founded on the "ethics of justice and rights," is an inadequate account of public morality and proposes that we should transform liberal thinking toward an expanded vision of "justice as care". (Abstract shortened by UMI.)
