In this paper we translate Ramsey-type problems into the language of decomposable hereditary properties of graphs. We prove a distributive law for reducible and decomposable properties of graphs. Using it we establish some values of graph theoretical invariants of decomposable properties and show their correspondence to generalized Ramsey numbers.
