I'm not sure where you're going with that, but after reading a book on the Spanish Civil War, when "respecting private property" means "a few people having a lot of it and most folks having next to nothing" and the former fighting to maintain this advantageous statu quo, it's pretty clear to me that the long-term stability of the country is in large part predicated on some measure of equality and social justice before "the respect for private property".
