KAIZER, VITOR LEANDRO. The Problem of Restitution in Thomas Aquinas. Rev. latinoam. filos. [online]. 2020, vol.46, n.1, pp.31-43. ISSN 1852-7353. http://dx.doi.org/10.36446/rlf2020196.
This article deals with Question 62 of the Secunda Secundae, of the Theological Sum ofThomas Aquinas. The main objective was to present and discuss the philosopher’s perspective on the problem of restitution. The relevance of this research lies in the fact that the subject treated presents considerable discussions about extremely current problems; above all, because the restitution, according to Thomas, aims to reestablish a state of social and individual harmony and, therefore, is essential to social welfare. Thus, the eight articles pertaining to the restitution were presented and efforts were made to approximate the main ideas presented. In this way, it was possible to conclude that the philosopher’s treatment of the problem comes from a rational analysis of the imperative ofjustice for social life and that restitution is a means of reestablishing social balance and individual well-being when justice has been wounded.
