The Centrality of the Regime for Political Science - Angell Bates Jr Clifford

The book concentrates on the crucial Aristotelian concept of politeia, trying to show how its understanding has evolved for years, often towards fallacious interpretations. The text also points out how reconstruction of the original meaning of the concept can help in creating the frames for modern political science to avoid the traps of ethnocentrism and methodological reductionism that appear in most of todays models used by the political science and by the theories of the political systems. In the last 20 years interest in Aristotles works has increased, resulting in reconsideration of their problems, especially of Aristotelian political thought. Many researchers offered redefinitions of politeia, but it is worth noticing that most of the previous analysis did not take into consideration central role of the concept and its constant liveliness, suggesting rather its archaic character and usefulness only from the historical point of view. Clifford Agnell Bates Jr proves the opposite: for him politeia is the universal concept that helps to understand the internal structure of modern political systems, their dynamics and mutual relationships. Clifford Angell Bates Jr About The Centrality of the Regime for Political Science Autor koncentruje się na kluczowym Arystotelesowskim pojęciu politeia, ukazując, jak sposób jego rozumienia ewoluował przez lata, często w kierunku błędnych interpretacji. Wskazuje również, jak rekonstrukcja pierwotnego znaczenia tego pojęcia może pomóc w stworzeniu ram dla współczesnych nauk politycznych, pozwalając uniknąć pułapek etnocentryzmu i redukcjonizmu metodologicznego, obecnych w większości modeli wykorzystywanych dziś w naukach politycznych i teoriach systemów politycznych. W ostatnim dwudziestoleciu wzrosło zainteresowanie dziełami Arystotelesa, co zaowocowało nowymi analizami zawartej w nich problematyki, w tym zwłaszcza Arystotelesowskiej myśli politycznej. Wielu badaczy proponowało wcześniej redefinicję pojęcia politeia, warto jednak zauważyć, że w większości dotychczasowych analiz nie uznawano centralnej roli tego pojęcia i jego stałej żywotności, sugerowano raczej jego archaiczny charakter i użyteczność jedynie z historycznego punktu widzenia. Clifford Agnell Bates Jr The Centrality of the Regime dowodzi czegoś wręcz przeciwnego: dla niego politeia jest pojęciem uniwersalnym, które pomaga zrozumieć wewnętrzną strukturę współczesnych systemów politycznych, ich dynamikę i wzajemne powiązania. źródło opisu: Helion źródło okładki: Helion
