First published in 1881 in German, then translated in 1894 into English , this writing is in the public domain.

This is important because of its publication date. This is probably the first place that "Distributive Justice" entered the English language in written form, at least in America. Any of the progressive professors of the day who went to Germany and studied under Schmoller would probably have used it in a classroom setting, but that's impossible to track.

Where does “Distributive justice” come from? I believe I have found the answer.

“How many a dispute could have been deflated into a single paragraph if the disputants had dared to define their terms.” Aristotle.

I did not see anywhere in this long, tortured diatribe the word justice defined.
