-
ordinary language of political actors.
-
There is virtually no jargon in Aristotle's Politics.
-
Aristotle's political science stays entirely within the orbit
-
of ordinary speech.
-
Such language does not claim to be scientifically purged of ambiguity,
-
but rather adopts standards of proof appropriate to people in
-
debates and assemblies, in courts of law, in council
-
rooms and the like.
-
The language of Aristotelian political science is the language of
-
man, the political animal.
-
You will never hear him speaking in terms of dependent or independent
-
variables.
