| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A series of redistribution experiments were conducted. The main finding was that subjects proposed redistributions that took into account the initial distribution, even when the initial distribution was determined entirely by chance. Specifically, subjects with unfavourable initial distributions proposed redistributions that were closer to equality, while subjects with favourable initial distributions proposed redistributions that were closer to their initial distributions. This implies that the concept of fairness claimed by an individual depends not only on the character of the individual but also on the situation in which the individual is placed, and has the social implication that the distribution realised, no matter how it is realised, receives a certain degree of respect and consideration as a vested right.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
人々の主張する公平が，個人の公平観だけでなく，置かれている状況に依存することを，実験で明らかにしたこと．特に，既得権は，それが尊重される程度はそれが正当化される程度と無関係であるが，たとえ正当化されないものでも，実現されたというだけで一定の尊重がされることは，現実社会における再分配政策の設計に含意をもつ．
