Nexo ético-político del concepto de Justicia en Aristóteles. Una propuesta en la virtud para el bienestar social

To reflect on the political thought of classical Greece is to return to the ethical meanings uttered by philosophers of that time, such as Plato and his disciple Aristotle, whose interests in the rational understanding of human behavior were nothing more than a diaphanous concern for the attainment of well-being of individuals within Greek cities, where the formation of ideas, institutions, and associations was considered of great importance. In fact, the social bonds and the configuration of attitudes that favor the objective of social welfare imply a reciprocal attention to the concepts of ethics and politics, whereas the incorporation of actions governed by the reason determines the relations between individuals of the same nation. Thus, this article presents the Aristotelian meaning of justice, to clarify the importance of this virtue in the ethical-political nexus of classical Greece, a period witnessed by Aristotle himself.
