common destinations.17 For personalism, values are of crucial importance for human beings and “education and persuasion” have preeminence over coercion.18 In synthesis, according to Monier, human beings are “spiritual beings”, constituted in such by a form of “independence in their being”, through their “adhesion to a hierarchy of values freely adopted,” besides being “assimilated and lived with assuming a responsible commitment."19 3. Juridical Personalism and Subjective Law. 22. In my opinion, personalistic thinking is forever relevant. Each human being is a subject of law. Actually, the notion of subject bursts into human knowledge without limiting itself to the conceptual universe of Law. It transcends it, and, with regard to human beings it always reaches the domain of the tradition of philosophical thoughts and anthropology. The condition of subject accompanies each human being throughout his entire existence, from the time of birth until death, and it transcends the mutations generated by the passing of time throughout a lifetime; likewise, it accompanies them in their relationships with others.20 The condition of subject affirms the autonomy of each human being, that goes on to relate with others and their social environment guided by their conscience. In the latter, each human subject finds their self-affirmation and builds their life project, seeking to fulfill their aspirations during their lifetime. In synthesis, each human being self-affirms himself in his condition of subject.21 23. But the need to regulate human or social relationships leads one back to juridical thoughts, to the science of Law, to the construction of subject of law and their attributes. With this, the legal code seeks to regulate each person’s sphere of liberty, in the realization of their life project and their purposes, with the due respect for the rights of others. The regulation of relationships between subjects of law covers different spheres of human activity, specifically, the relationships of each subject of law both with public power and other individuals. 24. As weighed in with lucidity by Gustav Radbruch, the concept of subject of law, as of that of person, is basically a concept of equality, "within which not only is the weak is compared to the powerful, or the rich with the poor, but also the weak personality of the individual with the gigantic personality of the collective person."22 Thus the importance of always maintaining the equality of people present: equality before law and the equal legal capacity of all, for him, this constitutes the essence of the notion of person or subject of law. To be a person is a purpose in itself and of itself (Selbstzweck), G. Radbruch significantly adds. For the latter the philosophicaljuridical concept of person or subject of law is equal to considering the latter as “a . E.
