| ### QUESTION 61 ### OF THE PARTS OF JUSTICE ###  |

| #### Prologue |

| #### #### We must now consider the parts of justice; (1) the subjective parts, which are the species of justice, i.e. distributive and commutative justice; (2) the quasi-integral parts; (3) the quasi-potential parts, i.e. the virtues connected with justice. The first consideration will be twofold: (1) The parts of justice; (2) their opposite vices. And since restitution would seem to be an act of commutative justice, we must consider (1) the distinction between commutative and distributive justice; (2) restitution. #### Under the first head there are four points of inquiry: #### (1) Whether there are two species of justice, viz. distributive and commutative? #### (2) Whether in either case the mean is take in the same way? #### (3) Whether their matter is uniform or manifold? #### (4) Whether in any of these species the just is the same as counter-passion? ####  |
