Aristotle's Inner Logic of Justice: Based on the Nicomachus Ethics

Aristotle discusses the issue of justice in Volume V of the Nicomachan Ethics, including the connotation of justice, several types of justice, and the relationship between justice and willing behavior. Aristotle seems to have no rules and regulations in his discourse, but in fact, he has his inherent logic. Aristotle first provides a specific explanation of justice and divides it into overall justice and specific justice. Overall justice is related to virtue, reflecting more of an individual's quality and possessing individuality; The specific justice is closely related to the life of the city-state, and is also the main object of discussion by the Aristocrats. The purpose of discussing justice is also for the overall happiness of the city-state. It is not difficult to see the city-state nature of the justice it discusses, and natural justice and agreed justice are closely related to the evolution of the city-state. Finally, Aristotle brought justice back to the individual, exploring the relationship between justice, injustice, and willful behavior, returning to individuality, which is also the individuality in the city-state. It can be said that Aristotle's theory of justice is interpreted along the internal logic of individuality, city-state, and individuality. However, at the same time, city-state cannot represent complete justice and happiness, so justice ultimately returns to the soul quality of the individual. Justice is the manifestation of individual virtue in the city-state, and city-state and individuality complement each other to achieve the goal of justice - the happiness of the political community.

미야자키 하야오 작품의 어린이 노동 모티프에 대한 유토피아주의적 해석

This study is a critique of the work of renowned Japanese animation director Hayao Miyazaki, specifically the recurring motif of child labor in his works. First, the recurring images of labor in his works are conceptualized as motifs in the narrative sense. In particular, it is noted that motifs are typically constructed through the repetition of key acts, which combine with each other to form and reinforce themes, and serve as the central core of a plot, the principle that forms the constitutive events. In other words, the labor motif is a principle of narrative organization. Analytic frame is suggested by drawing on Aristotle's theory of character and the theory of agency, the ability of an entity to cause an event. Applying this frame to Hayao's early works, Kiki the Witch Courier and Spirited Away, child labor motif in terms of the self-creative agency in agency theory and the plot-intensive motif of motif theory are analyzed. Through this analysis, it is clear that the labor motif is not only the attraction of the characters in Hayao's works, but also the core and driving principle of the narrative. Finally, as the philosophical origin of the labor motif, Hayao's view of labor is interpreted by using utopian views of labor, such as Fourier's, which are often found in early socialist discussions, as a framework for interpretation.

A new perspective of Aristotle's theory of vision: analysis of the "psycho-physical" intertwined mechanism of vision.

Aristotle's visual theory plays a pivotal role in De Anima, he specifically analyzes three fundamental elements required for visual activities, namely, color, transparent substance, and light. Color moves and limits transparent substance, thereby transforming transparent substance from potentiality to actuality through light. However, there is a debate between Physicalism and Spiritualism as to the specific implementation of the visual activity. Through the intertwined mechanism, Aristotle's theory of vision can be clarified. The visual activity is neither purely psychological nor purely physical, it is the "psycho-physical" intertwined mechanism. This is why Aristotle's visual theory is closely related to contemporary visual psychology.

Vlogger's persuasive strategy and consumers' purchase intention: The dual mediating role of para-social interactions and perceived value.

It is a new advertising marketing method for commodity companies to use vloggers to endorse their products, and to influence consumers' attitudes and decisions. In view of this phenomenon, there are few studies on the relationship between vloggers and consumers, and this study aims to explore how the persuasive strategies used by vloggers to promote products influence consumers' purchase intentions. Based on the concepts of Aristotle's persuasion theory, this study extracts two specific persuasive approaches, "two-sided messages" and "emotional appeal," to explore consumers' perceptions of them and the effectiveness of these two strategies. At the same time, para-social interaction and perceived value as intermediary factors are also included in the study for further discussion. The study empirically analyzed a sample of 511 questionnaires from participants who had purchased products recommended by vloggers and came to the following conclusions: (1) vloggers can enhance consumers' purchase intention by adopting two-sided messages persuasion when promoting products; (2) vloggers' emotional persuasion can enhance consumers' purchase intention; (3) as an intermediary variable, para-social interaction plays a more obvious role in vloggers' persuasion by appealing to emotions. The audience can have common feelings with vloggers, and they are more connected with each other, thus increasing their willingness to buy; (4) Perceived value, as an intermediary variable, plays a more obvious role in vloggers' persuasion with the two-sided messages. The two-sided messages can show vloggers' credibility and more abundant information about products, so that consumers have a positive perception of product value, and the direct persuasion effect of the two-sided messages is greater. Based on the results of the study, this paper helps vloggers to adopt different persuasive approaches for different types of audiences, choose the proper marketing methods, attract the potential customers, and achieve such purposes as enriching product marketing forms and increasing market share.

ETHOS, PATHOS, LOGOS DAN KOMUNIKASI PUBLIK: A SYSTEMATIC LITERATURE REVIEW

Aristotle's rhetorical theory is one of the oldest communication theories. Aristotle's rhetoric is concerned with 'argument', which seeks to persuade an audience especially in the context of public communication. This journal aims to see the trend of Aristotle's rhetorical studies, categorize them based on the concept of artistic proofs and based on the topic of study, as well as to develop (purify) based on the assumptions of classical rhetoric theory using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method. We found that rhetorical theory studies by Aristotles are dominated by political communication topics. This journal also found a decrease in the number of studies using Aristotle's rhetorical theory. We argue that the character of rhetorical theory, which is considered "old-fashioned" and does not have clear guidelines, becomes an obstacle in the analysis process of a study that uses this rhetorical theory. Although most of the article studies mentioned the definition of the concept of artistic proofs correctly, in-depth analysis using artistic proofs was not found. We also found a misunderstanding of Aristotle's rhetorical theory that was less precise and did not look at the historical theory development in several selected journals.

WACANA POLITIK PADA PIDATO ANGGOTA PARLEMEN INDONESIA TENTANG PENANGANAN COVID 19

Communication as the essence of interaction between people plays an important role in all aspects of life, including politics. The view that communication includes politics, presumably understandable, because politics is all-present (ubiquitous) and multi-dimensional. Political communication, in practice can take the form of speech, public speaking or rhetoric. And when it comes to political communication in its various forms, our attention will be drawn to the various colors of the speeches of legislators (in this paper the author mentions lawmakers). There are three indicators analyzed, by using Aristotle's rhetorical theory, namely Ethos, pathos and Logos. This paper uses a qualitative method which is considered as a written analysis of words related to ideas, ideas, beliefs, feelings, habits and behaviors of human Walliman in (Akbar, 2021). The analysis used by the authors is descriptive analytical to provide an overview of how the perspectives of lawmakers (in other terms, legislators) view the functioning of the state and government in the covid 19 vaccination program. Meanwhile, the data analysis technique in writing this article departs from an explanation (Creswell, 2014) which focuses on data analysis through data organization, reading and recording, as well as description, clarification, and interpretation (Agustino, 2020). The result is that MPs' speeches on Indonesia's Covid 19 handling policies are largely determined by their position, whether from government-supporting parties or the opposition

A Logic for Aristotle's Modal Syllogistic

ABSTRACT We propose a new modal logic endowed with a simple deductive system to interpret Aristotle's theory of the modal syllogism. While being inspired by standard propositional modal logic, it is also a logic of terms that admits a (sound) extensional semantics involving possible states-of-affairs in a given world. Applied to the analysis of Aristotle's modal syllogistic as found in the Prior Analytics A8-22, it sheds light on various fine-grained distinctions which when made allow us to clarify some ambiguities and obtain a completely consistent system and prove all of the modal syllogisms considered valid by Aristotle. This logic allows us also to make a connection with the axioms of modern propositional modal logic and to perceive to what extent these are implicit in Aristotle's reasoning. Further work will involve addressing the question of the completeness of this logic (or variants thereof) together with an extension of the logic to include a calculus of relations (for instance the relational syllogistic treated in Galen's Introduction to Logic) which Slomkowsky has argued is already found in the Topics.
