The article reconstructs and examines Ferrajoli’s philosophical thought upon liberty and
property, from Teoria assiomatizzata del diritto (1970) to Principia Iuris (2007). From this
diachronic perspective arise the most important conceptual and lexical changes of his
theory of subjective rights, which current framework shows very few common elements
with the original paradigm. Moreover, the subject and the approach of this study allow us
to closely appreciate the ethical-political stance of Ferrajoli’s philosophy and to point out
a decisive modification of his vision of social order: the transition from the objection to
the acceptance of the legal pillars of the market economy.
Keywords: Liberty; Property; Subjective Rights; Ferrajoli.
