From the person as a gift to the justice of the commons.

Summary We mobilize the notion of gift in the framework of a reflection on the justice of the commons, in the double sense: what is transmitted freely, in a non-demandable way, and what obliges us and binds us together. This perspective appears central in the search for a social and political organization that favors the inclusion of the most fragile, and the conditions for living together today and tomorrow. Nussbaum's thought allows us to deepen the tensions inherent in the Maussian perspective.
