生活在政治之中——亚里士多德对政治本真含义的揭示

Living in the Politics——Aristotle's Interpretation to the Authentic Import of Politics

人天生是一种政治动物,这里的"人"是作为城邦主体的公民的伦理存在;政治是人类的基本生活方式之一,其最高的主题是美好的生活,即幸福:这是亚里士多德政治哲学的主旨所在。他在前人理论基础上,立足于希腊城邦的现实来阐发其政治哲学。作为天生政治动物的人,就是指一个城邦当中拥有政治权利的公民。城邦自然生成的过程,贯穿着人的对作为最高善的幸福的追求的天性;只有在城邦当中,人的许多本质属性才能真正得到展现,城邦是人之为人的前提。
