'Public reason' is the phrase used by American philosopher
John Rawls to refer to the common reason of all citizens in a
pluralist society. ''Public reason'' is contrasted by Rawls with the nonpublic reason employed by citizens as members of
religious associations or as adherents to particular
moral and
philosophical doctrines.
