The Politics and Economics of Aristotle is a book written by the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle. It is a treatise on political philosophy and economics, and is considered one of the most important works in the Western tradition of political thought. The book is divided into eight books, each of which deals with a different aspect of politics and economics. In the first book, Aristotle lays out his fundamental beliefs about the nature of politics and the role of the state. He argues that the state exists to promote the common good, and that it should be organized in such a way as to ensure that all citizens have a share in governing. The second book focuses on the different types of constitutions, or forms of government. Aristotle identifies six types of constitutions, ranging from the ideal form of government (which he calls a ""polity"") to the worst form (tyranny). The third book deals with the issue of citizenship and the rights and duties of citizens. Aristotle argues that citizenship should be based on a combination of birth and merit, and that citizens have a duty to participate in the political life of the state. The fourth book is concerned with the issue of justice, and explores the different types of justice and their relationship to the law. The fifth book deals with the issue of property and wealth, and examines the different types of economic systems and their impact on society. The sixth book focuses on the issue of education, and argues that the state has a responsibility to provide education to all citizens in order to promote the common good. The seventh book deals with the issue of revolution, and examines the circumstances under which it is justified. The final book is a summary of the previous seven books, and provides a conclusion to Aristotle's political and economic philosophy. Overall, The Politics and Economics of Aristotle is a comprehensive and influential work that has had a profound impact on the development of Western political thought. It remains an important text for scholars of political philosophy and economics, and continues to be studied and debated to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
