For Plato and Aristotle, ethics is a kind of knowledge that is intrinsically practical. Just as the physician worries about taking care of the sick, the professor of ethics worries about teaching virtue. But, unlike medicine, ethics is a knowledge that involves community. The politician, according to Plato and Aristotle, must care about how virtue is taught to citizens.
