Apuntes sobre el fenómeno de la deliberación en Aristóteles: prâxis individual y política

Abstract

This text explores in the selected works of Aristotle the connection of deliberation on the particular view of action and on the political view, and its rich anthropological and ontological background, not always addressed in the secondary bibliography. It highlights the many complex connections within the framework of Aristotelian anthropology, ethics, and politics. To this end, it focuses on the textual source, specifically on the selection of key passages from four Aristotelian texts: Nicomachean Ethics, Eudemian Ethics, Rhetoric and Politics . In the last two the political level of deliberation is analyzed and described, while in the previous two the level of individual praxis . The article is closed by a section that presents the connections between the two planes.
