Aristóteles comunidade sobre bbb
https://www.academia.edu/39195685/Aristotles_Conception_of_community?email_work_card=thumbnail
All state is a community of some kind, that is every state is a different communal society that
comes together though with different background, foundations, basis but with a common goal.
All community is founded and established with a view to some good, which means that their
focus and pertinent goal is aim at some end and this end centres on some good, reason being that
human beings are generally structured to aim at what is good, good in this context is however
wide. It is in the nature of every human being to aim at what is good because it will not serve
their interest to aim at what is bad. As a political animal, human beings tends to be politically
conscious and egoistic in nature, although there are some people that derives their goodness in
bad things, for example, a masochist (a person that derives pleasure from pain).
Good can be classified into categories as there are highest good. The state or political community
aims at good in a greater degree than any other, and at the highest good. The state or political
community is the highest good on the basis that every human being is a product of a political
community or state and as such they do not exist in isolation. Every good that will be aim at by
an individual in the political community will be affected by the totality and the superiority of
right of the state over the individual that lives within the state. The peak of the good that can be
attained will be the good of the community. For example, a person that shows interest in
becoming the governor of a state aim at some good but for this good to become a reality, he must
work hand-in-hand with the state or the political community. In other words, the good of the
community supersedes an individual good, which makes it possible for the good of the political
community or the state to be the highest good. The difference between individual good and the
community good is wide because a master that rules over a few is different from a master that
rules over more and also different from a manager of a household that rules over a larger number.
This difference is wide and pronounced because a great household is different from a small state.
However, the structure and the element of the state will determine the type of rule. For example,
a monarchical state is different from a federal state, while a presidential state is different from an
egalitarian state. Nevertheless, the wide gap and difference still centres on the good that they aim
to achieve.
The ways in which we view things that leads to clarity of purpose and reality is quite different.
Coming together of two opposing views could lead to a union. Mating of male and female
animals that b rings about offspring, a desire of both sexes though it is not always a deliberate
purpose, but with exposure and interactions with other animals within and outside their domains.
Nature really plays a role in what we see or foresee, it is the nature that gives us what our mind
picture to us and also by nature our body interprets it. By nature we could differentiate between a
master and a slave, though they have the same interest. A master and a slave still remain a person
as it does not lead to subordination, degradation or defamation of character as both are not less
person.
However, among Barbarians there is no distinction between a woman and a slave as nature does
not play major role amongst them. Whether slave or master, there should be what we call a
family, it is when a couple comes together as a family that it leads to birth of different species,
because if there is no birth to new babies there cannot be a slave or a master. (Like a Yoruba
adage that says that, there is no category in giving birth, the way a slave is born is also the way a
master is born).
Different association of families is what leads to a village, what they will be craving for will be
more than mere supply of daily needs; the first society that will be formed will be the village. It is
when this village is formed with different families that a ruler will be chosen. For example, in the
pre- colonial Igbo community, the elders played a prominent role in ruling and governing the
community
