abstract = "This paper discusses the relationship between moral philosophy and
political philosophy. It holds that political philosophy in some way is part of moral
philosophy as the former deals with the content of moral standards governing
the relations between individuals and institutions. That would be the purpose
of the „morality of institutions“, while the so-called „individual morality“ would
inform the standards applicable to individuals. On the basis of a conception of
individual morality as it relates to contractualism and a discussion of the morality
of institutions that closely follows John Rawls’ theory of justice, the paper addresses
the question of the foundations of the obligation to comply with institution-
defined standards that are directed towards individuals. At the end, it
focuses in particular on the difficulty of rationalizing that obligation in the case
of unjust institutions.",
