ANGARITA-CACERES, Rafael-Gonzalo. Principles of Distributive Justice in Experimental Works with Children from Small-Scale societies. Rev. Guillermo Ockham [online]. 2021, vol.19, n.2, pp.233-248.  Epub 26-Ago-2021. ISSN 1794-192X.  https://doi.org/10.21500/22563202.4799.

Experimental works whose purpose is to examine the principles of distributive justice in children may be read from the participants’ origins. To develop this idea, studies that include children from small-scale societies have been selected. The critical reading that is being put forward allows, in the first place, to make a distinction between small-scale, non-WEIRD societies (those which are not Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich and Democratic). This distinction is being made as small-scale societies are non-WEIRD, albeit non-WEIRD societies can be large-scale. Secondly, it has been determined that works related to resource distribution within small-scale societies can be distinguished based on their results: some tend to establish psychological universals, while others identify cultural differences with regard to both WEIRD and non-WEIRD societies.

Palabras clave : distributive justice; small-scale societies; large-scale societies; psychological universals; cultural differences.
