The Politics

Examining the relationship between Ethics and Politics, Aristotle argues that while ethical principles are essential for a fulfilling life, they alone are insufficient for a fruitful existence. In this treatise, he presents Politics as an objective study of existing institutions, emphasizing that it should not be viewed merely as a struggle for power or order. Instead, Aristotle advocates for an understanding of political structures without bias or the intent to reform them, highlighting the importance of analyzing governance in its current state.
