page no 1074 note 1 The distinction (although not in the form I have put it) is usually attributed to Aristotle who discusses it in connection with "particular" justice in his Politics (III, 9 and V, 1) and his Nicomachean Ethics (V, 3, 1-17). See also Aristotle, Ethics (Everyman edition, 1950), pp. 112 et seq.
