Doing Justice is, broadly speaking, the virtue of giving each one what it corresponds to.
This can be used either taking into account the limitations of justice as a power or by establishing
fairness on a reasonable basis.
Within the judicial sphere, this concept is used to refer to the rules and rules that
condition the actions of individuals and institutions on the basis of authorizations, prohibitions
and obligations that must be respected.
For the establishment of these conditions, societies often take as a basis the consensus
coming from most individuals in a society with regard to what is considered to be bad and good.
