| Abstract |
The aim of this article is to introduce Francisco Suárezs definition of obe-diential potency in the context of one of his first essays: De beatitudine. When analysing this notion, we are able to understand the link between deity and human agency, and also give account of Suárezs progressive distancing from Aristotle and Aquinas. His con-ception of obediential potency manifests the novelty of his philosophical system, where human autonomy and will are highlighted, and, at the same time, it represents the con-fluence point of his metaphysical, theological and ethical theses. © 2020, Editorial Balmes.
