The Thomistic Institute at Stanford University invites students, faculty, and the general public to a lecture titled “Private Property and the Universal Destination of Goods: How a Right to Private Possessions Serves the Common Good.” The lecture will be given by Fr. Brad Elliott, O.P., of the Dominican School of Philosophy & Theology. Drawing on the thought of St. Thomas Aquinas and the Catholic social tradition, Fr. Elliott will explore how private property can be understood not in opposition to the common good, but as one of its essential supports.

The event is free and open to the public. Click here to RSVP.
