Since the law is set then when people follow them precisely they are getting closer to living their life with virtue and are not able to follow their own desires as the law already established. Aristotle stated that if people did not follow the laws that are set then there would be no regime at all which further leads into why he is not fond of certain types of democracy since the laws are not always established in advance. ]]> 2019-09-30 02:36:57 UTC https://padlet.com/1396601/marvzhafqizq/wish/391128634 Citizenship 1396601 https://padlet.com/1396601/marvzhafqizq/wish/391128739 Aristotle believed that citizenship came from being able to participate in the city's decisions and having a direct role in the assembly rather than having it based on location of birth or legal procedures . He felt that slaves were not citizens as they were not entitled to have any part in decisions for the city. In order to have a direct role, Aristotle believed that a true citizen would take it upon themselves to discuss what they think is the best possible laws for everyone among other citizens which would lead to a judicial decision which would be controlled by other citizens that rotate in and out of power. He made it clear that it is not always glorious being a citizen because although they have privileges they also have many more responsibilities than non citizens. ]]> 2019-09-30 02:37:51 UTC https://padlet.com/1396601/marvzhafqizq/wish/391128739 Ideal Citizen 1396601 https://padlet.com/1396601/marvzhafqizq/wish/391129058 Aristotle felt that there was only one perfect scenario in which a good man and the virtue of a citizen can be equal and that would be under the perfect regime. Since that was not realistic and Aristotle did not go into much further detail on that regime it is believed that the ideal citizen is simply one who completely follows all of their regimes beliefs even if it is against what is typically a good mans beliefs and actions. In other words, they would have to fully support anything the regime says to. ]]> 2019-09-30 02:40:11 UTC https://padlet.com/1396601/marvzhafqizq/wish/391129058 Regime 1396601 https://padlet.com/1396601/marvzhafqizq/wish/391129103 There are six total regimes that Aristotle came up with and he ended up advocating for monarchy which is a government where one man rules but has an interest for all the citizens in the city. He believed that the best situation would be to have an extremely virtuous leader to rule so that that leader will create laws that ultimately lead others to be as virtuous as the ruler is. Also, the citizens would then obey the ruler instead of having multiple leaders that are almost of equal power which further leads to many issues in control. However, that was only Aristotle's theory and cities tended to not actually have a strong virtuous ruler that everyone followed. ]]> 2019-09-30 02:40:23 UTC https://padlet.com/1396601/marvzhafqizq/wish/391129103 Oligarchy vs Democracy 1396601 https://padlet.com/1396601/marvzhafqizq/wish/391134985 The main component that separates the two types of regimes is not the amount of people that rule but actually the amount of wealth the ruler contains. Both regimes have opinions on the factor of justice when it comes to the distribution of political power but both ultimately is a bias towards their own group(rich vs poor). The oligarchs felt the rich should hold more power and thus rule on their own while the democrats advocated for an equal share of power among citizens since they are all equally entitled. Aristotle agreed that both of the regimes had accurate truth to their beliefs but neither of them had it completely correct because of their own selfish desires. ]]> 2019-09-30 03:16:19 UTC https://padlet.com/1396601/marvzhafqizq/wish/391134985 Example 1396601 https://padlet.com/1396601/marvzhafqizq/wish/391140869 This belief shows that two contradicting ideas can both hold valid truth to them which can both be displayed in our government. The constitution is set as a Federal democratic republic in which the government's power is form its people but people govern themselves. ]]> 2019-09-30 03:55:20 UTC https://padlet.com/1396601/marvzhafqizq/wish/391140869 Example 1396601 https://padlet.com/1396601/marvzhafqizq/wish/391141715 Part of this belief can be taken into one of the components of the sixth amendment which allows a citizen a fair jury. It is up to all the citizens under the constitution to serve in a jury which ultimately gives power to the people and helps rotate power between. ]]> 2019-09-30 04:01:13 UTC https://padlet.com/1396601/marvzhafqizq/wish/391141715 Example 1396601 https://padlet.com/1396601/marvzhafqizq/wish/391142144 The entire constitution is built up of laws for citizens to follow which is exactly what Aristotle is claiming here and that in order for society to work then they need to completely be followed under any cirumstance. ]]> 2019-09-30 04:04:16 UTC https://padlet.com/1396601/marvzhafqizq/wish/391142144 Example 1396601 https://padlet.com/1396601/marvzhafqizq/wish/391142399 Parts of this belief builds up the constitution as it can further develop the idea of having government control and not having shared power among citizens. ]]> 2019-09-30 04:06:28 UTC https://padlet.com/1396601/marvzhafqizq/wish/391142399 Example 1396601 https://padlet.com/1396601/marvzhafqizq/wish/391142625 This again goes with the idea of laws to rule as the constitution was and is created for people to always follow its laws.]]> 2019-09-30 04:08:36 UTC https://padlet.com/1396601/marvzhafqizq/wish/391142625 Bibliography 1396601 https://padlet.com/1396601/marvzhafqizq/wish/391142774 Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy, www.iep.utm.edu/aris-pol/#SH9a.
