Abstract

What does Nature mean in the famous Aristotelian formula?man is, by nature, a political animal?? Within the context of the discussion with the Socratic assertions in Plato?s Republic, Nature means that polis is not the result of deficiency, but the expression of a positive desire. Thus, for human beings, there is no state of nature before political life. This does not mean that everything that is political is natural. nema
