Aquinas’s conception of the ius gentium was different of Gratian’s and relied to a large extent on the civilian interpretation of Romanlaw texts. This article analyzes how the decretists, the first interpreters of Gratian, arrived at a conception of the ius gentium that was different from that of Gratian himself, and thus paved the way for Aquinas to read the Roman law conception into the ius gentium.- Reproduced  aJournal of the History of Ideas  aPHILOSOPHY - WESTEN cAR 00102ddc40709391446aIIPAbIIPAd2021-07-12h81(4), Oct, 2020: 509-529pAR124719r2021-07-12yAR
