About
Aristotle acknowledges that the different views regarding the most appropriate form of government stem from the different priority that various men, or groups of men, give to the different values.
The primary political dispute is whether freedom, wealth, power, or moral virtue, should be considered as the primary value for judging equality.
In order to interpret Aristotle's egalitarian and participatory understanding of the political, we need to examine his analysis of the various constitutions. Moreover, we need to examine and analyze Aristotle's views regarding a number of central issues–, such as the definition of the citizens and the non-citizens, the importance of unity, the role of property, and the meaning of justice, that provide the basis for the development of his understanding of the political.
A new analysis for the study of classical ancient, Aristotelian philosophy.
