BUENO, María. Aristotle and the Citizen. Tópicos (México) [online]. 2018, n.54, pp.11-45. ISSN 0188-6649. https://doi.org/10.21555/top.v0i54.892.
The present article explores the Aristotelian concept of citizenship and its central characteristics. At the same time, and for this consideration of the citizen, the article stresses the importance of the Aristotelian distinction between the ruler and the ruled, and of the citizen's participation in different regimes. Particular focus is given to Aristotle s interest in the virtues that make a man good and that make a citizen a good citizen, as well as the relationship between both figures. It concludes by exploring the importance of the virtue of prudence for life in the polis and for the ruler in particular.
