Abstract
GUERRA GONZALEZ, María del Rosario. Economic rights in a decent society and in justice theories. Cuad. Econ. [online]. 2015, vol.34, n.64, pp.89-114. ISSN 0121-4772. https://doi.org/10.15446/cuad.econ.v34n64.45934.
It has been demonstrated by applying a document analysis using a hermeneutic method, that economic rights are based on ethics, but that, moreover, they could be claimed at a national, regional and international level, even with their progressive nature. The research contribution is to correct errors in the economic rights thematic, to place them in a "decent society" and prove the possibilities and limitations in the justice theories of John Rawls, Thomas Scanlon and Amartya Sen, concerning this thematic. New rights are proposed to cause the current laws to become effective.
Keywords : Economic rights; decent society; justice; law; ethics.
