Amartya Sen explores the ways in which, and the degree to which, justice is a matter of reason, and of different kinds of reason. This event marks the launch of Professor Sen's new book The Idea of Justice. Amartya Sen is Lamont University Professor at Harvard and an honorary fellow of LSE. He won the Nobel Prize in Economics in 1998 and was Master of Trinity College, Cambridge 1998-2004.

Greatest man in the world. World famous personality. Greatest regard to him.........
It’s a great opportunity to hear him though much late. I live in the same part of Dhaka City where he was born and my son was a student of the same school where this great man studied in his childhood. We do feel proud of this great man that he was our neighbour. We wish his good health and a long life.
Sen sir, We are proud of you.
So who would choose (and under what circumstances)

What are these niti and Nayar concepts he refers to? I am afraid I have not heard of them before and do not follow.
These are two different Sanskrit words (there are 25) for justice. Niti is the description of ideal behaviour rules and of ideal institutions.
Nayar means the realisation of justice (what kind of opportunities people have for example). Sen is concerned with Nayar in his Idea of Justice, rather than the justice closer to Niti advanced by Rawls. I got this off of one of his interviews, I recommend watching them :)
@@MsSixtine16 One correction, it says Nyaya not Nayar
