Appendix B

1. Some translators convey this idea by using the word “social”

instead of “political.” In either case, the aim is to convey that human

beings—by their nature and, more specifically, because they have the

capacity for complex communication through language—naturally

tend to live in groups. This enables them to perform activities and live

lives that would be impossible for them as individuals, because individ-

ual human beings are not self-sufficient. See Fred Miller, “Aristotle’s

Political Theory,” in The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, ed.
