Based on the social principles of the United Nations International Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (2006), we study the social model of disability that inspired it to evaluate the models of justice that can be adjusted to this transformation in the understanding of disability. Next, we analyze the most relevant theories of justice designed in recent decades based on the criteria of how they approach the problem of justice for people with disabilities. Finally, we expose a balance of the theories. We proposed a position related to the demand for political participation expressed in the Convention and the report on its implementation in Colombia in 2016.
