The concept of violence in Aristotle's social and political philosophy
Violence, despite all the democratic efforts of politicians, has not been overcome. As a result, humanity was forced to find a balance between violence and nonviolence. On the one hand, violence is necessary to maintain law and order, but on the other it needs to be normalized and regulated. Since the emergence of ancient philosophy, as the basis of European culture, many of its representatives have offered their ideas for a better way of life of society. One of the striking examples is the socio-political ideas of the great ancient philosopher Aristotle. He largely determined the course of development of further socio-political ideas in the history of Europe and the world. For this reason, the task of the study is to analyze and systematize Aristotle's views on violence. The main method of research is analysis. In his works, Aristotle examines many socio-political aspects in the life of society. They are all very diverse, but Aristotle makes a detailed analysis and regulation on the degree of permissibility of the use of each type of violence, or prohibition.
