Who deserves what? / Aristotle
6 important questions on Who deserves what? / Aristotle
What are two ideas central to Aristotle’s political philosophy
essential nature) of the social practice in question.
2. Justice is honorific. To reason about the telos of a practice, or to argue about it, is, at least in part,
to reason or argue about what virtues it should honor and reward.
What is the purpose of politics?
we have to inquire into the purpose, or telos, of politics. We have to ask: what is political association for? This is very difficult. We view politics as a procedure that enables persons to choose their ends for themselves
What is a polis (political community)?
the end and purpose of a polis is the good life, and the institutions of social life are means to that end. Those who are the best at deliberating about the common good, Those who are the greatest in civic excellence, are the one who merit the greatest share of political
recognition and influence. Here again, we see how the teleological and honorific aspects of justice go
together.

For my 1st exam I got a C. Then, I started looking for ways to learn better and I came across Study Smart. Since then I have scored a A+, A, A- and another A. I highly recommend it to everyone who wants to hear it. I am so happy with it!!
I was struggling to finish all my first-year subjects for 3 years. Then I discovered Study Smart, which helped me to finish all of them within 3 months.
Because of StudySmart, things are going well in many ways. Before, I always had study stress and no time for anything. Now I feel calm and confident (because of the program). I used to score a B, now I usually score an A or A+.
Hey Chris, I really want to thank you very much for developing the platform, I usually got around C for my exams, now I scored an A+, an A and a A- !!
Since using Study Smart, my average has increased significantly. I even completed a statistics course with a A+ while I'm bad at statistics. I took on extra courses this year, because of Study Smart. Thanks so much!
Ever since I started studying with StudySmart I passed all my exams !!! No more re-sits!! At first, I was happy with a pass and now I only get good grades. Many thanks!
I aced all the courses I studied with Study Smart. For law, I first scored a D, and now an A! I’m 100% sure that I’ll pass all the courses I study with Study Smart.
I always thought I studied well. My grades were fine. I could never have imagined that applying these study skills would have such a huge and direct impact on my grades, my speed and the pleasure I have in learning.
For the first time, I finally feel totally confident about the way I learn. I have the perfect overview and make great progress in terms of speed and the grades I get. Thanks, Chris!
I immediately started to enjoy learning again, and my grades soared. All of a sudden, everything went better. I highly recommend Study Smart to all students..
Being able to create my materials online made the process of studying so much smoother and quicker. I no longer have to spend a huge amount of my time on creating my summaries.
At first, my notes were a mess. Now I use Study Smart to take my notes in a perfectly structured way. It helps me to save a lot of time and do other things I enjoy.
Students that study with Study Smart get better grades. The system applies all the learning methods in such a way that both well-performing students and students who struggle perform much better.
Hi Chris, I would like to thank you very much. Last year I scored C on a course, and this year I got an A+ thanks to your method! Thank you very much!
The largest effect is that my child is more enthusiastic about school! Every parent wants their children to be happy at school, Study Smart made it happen.
In high school, I failed several exams, and that has really changed now. I actually needed this tool very much back then. Since I started studying with StudySmart, I haven't had any D's. My average score is now an A and those are results I would have never had in the past
With my old method, I passed only 3 out of 8 courses. Since I started taking my notes digitally in Study Smart, I have passed all my courses on the first try. For me, StudySmart takes away the stress of wondering if I will pass or not.
Thanks to StudySmart, I passed all my exams, and with better grades than before! On top of that, I have mastered a very good study method now, which I am confident will help me earn my degree.
Why is politics essential in the good life?
character and set us on the way to civic virtue.
2) the life of the citizen enables us to exercise capacities for deliberation and practical wisdom that would otherwise lie dormant. (this is not the thing we can
do at home)
What is justice for Aristotle?
justice is a matter of fit. To allocate rights is to look
for the telos of the social institutions, and to fit persons to the roles that suit them, the roles that enable
them to realize their nature. Giving persons their due means giving them the offices and honors they
deserve and the social roles that accord with their nature.
What are Objections from liberal theorie (Kant, Rawls) against Aristotle?
Justice is not about fit but about choice. Let people choose their roles for themselves.
Aristotle: slavery is necessary and it must be natural (to fulfil the job) Some are slave from natural . But coercion is a sign of injustice. (unnatural fit): those who are cat in a role consistent with their nature don’t need to be forced
