Product Description
by Aristotle (Author)
Aristotle addresses the city in his work titled Politics, viewing the city to be a natural community. Moreover, he considers the city to precede the family which in turn precedes the individual. He also famously states that man is by nature a political animal, arguing that humanity's defining factor among others in the animal kingdom is its rationality.
In the end of the Nicomachean Ethics, Aristotle declared that the inquiry into ethics necessarily follows into politics, and the two works are frequently considered to be parts of a larger treatise dealing with the philosophy of human affairs. Politics is divided into eight books. The books focus on the political community, different types of regimes, citizenship, the structure of political power, constitutional governance, revolutions, family life, and education.
This case laminate collector's edition includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket.
