This paper deals with the place of the concept of justification in the processes of institutions in modern societies. A synthesis is proposed between Commons’ transaction theory and Boltanski and Thevenot justification theory. This synthesis involves tearing down and re-building both of these theories with the help of the American philosopher MacIntyre, who distinguishes two general conceptions of justice: the first in terms of excellence, and the second in terms of efficient coordination.
