HERNANDEZ PRADO, José. Justicia y propiedad según Thomas Reid: Un acierto y un error muy posibles. Tópicos (México) [online]. 2009, n.37, pp.31-46. ISSN 0188-6649.

This article puts forward that according to Scottish philosopher, Thomas Reid (1710-1796), justice must be understood as a moral virtue of a natural kind among human beings, or as a matter of species regarding them; not as an artificial or a conventional virtue, which is a product of human collectivities or a matter of sociability in human beings. However, the article proposes as well that in his reflections on justice, Thomas Reid held an arguable notion of property, as the o nership of riches basically distributable or apportionable, but not as one of the goods that are mainly produced or generated, as his contemporaries David Hume and da sith stated it.

Palavras-chave : Thomas Reid; common sense; moral faculty or sense; justice; property.
