Estudamos o modo como Suárez aprofundou uma tradição decisiva para fortalecer a ideia de comunidade universal de natureza supraestatal, assente em regras morais superiores à soberania dos estados, tendo como fundamento a dignidade da pessoa humana, a unidade do género humano, o bem comum universal e a igualdade natural das soberanias do orbe, tanto do ponto de vista do domínio de jurisdição como no de propriedade, suportada por conceções democráticas sobre a origem do poder civil. Visava-se, assim, um conceito de comunidade não meramente internacional, mas propriamente universal, ao mesmo tempo que se proclamava a legitimidade das soberanias indígenas no Novo Mundo, porque o poder civil não radicava na fé ou na caridade mas sim na razão natural e na sociabilidade dos homens.
