Politics: A Treatise on Government by Aristotle

"Politics: A Treatise on Government" by Aristotle is a work of political philosophy written in the 4th century BC. Aristotle examines how people should best live together in communities, particularly the polis or city-state. Drawing on research of 158 constitutions, he uses an evidence-based approach to explore the nature of political communities, household relationships, citizenship, and controversial questions about slavery and justice. The work bridges ethics and politics in Aristotle's philosophy of human affairs. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
