Resumen:
In this paper, I will try to offer a definition of the specific goods that government should provide to the citizens. It is a task similar to Nussbaum´s and other scholars whose lists I will develop relying on Aristotle?s ideas. Economists are not used to thinking in terms of practical reasoning. We should accordingly provide them with concrete guidance. We should avoid, however, falling into an over-specification as criticized by Sen.
