Abstract

Its objective is demonstrating the existence of this conception in the most representative figures of the philosophy of the selected period. The used methodology is based on the hermeneutical analysis of original papers, as well as of complementary sources, at the same time it was used the historic logical and inductive deductive focus. The result of investigation evidences the continuity of ideas around the common good transit from one to another thinker, acquiring perceptible shades in abolitionism, independentism, justice and social equality, collective well-being, survival, solidarity, that are articulated among themselves to conform an ampler conception: the one of common good, which essence is shown at the subordination from the particular interests to the collective interests.
