Abstract

The aim of Suarazian political theory is to achieve the common good in the facticity of the concrete human reality. From this perspective, it is possible to defend that the acceptance of political resistance involves, ultimately, that this resistance is the last limit to the political power. Furthermore, that point of view means clearing the ways for a thoughtful, proportional, and cautious use of violence. In short, violence operates as a factical instrument of self-defence searching concrete common good.
