John Finnis on Law and Justice

Original language description

The article deals with the analysis of one particular aspect of natural law theory of John Finnis - his definition of unjust law. First part analyzes the focal meaning of the term law, which includes five basic features of legal system, rule of law principle and the role of practical reasonableness in law. Rule of law principle is connected with common good, which is prerequisite for the flourishing of all the members of a society. Practical reasonableness is one of the basic goods. Second part deals with Finnis's notion of justice and its types. He divides justice into three kinds - general justice, distributive justice, and commutative justice. According to him every justice issue requires a consideration of all three kinds of justice.
