Resumen
En la Ética a Nicómaco Aristóteles establece que el fin supremo del hombre es la felicidad y que de ella se ocupa la ciencia política. A partir de esto afirma que la ciencia política es la ciencia “más principal” (1094a26). La afirmación aristotélica en cuanto a la superioridad de la sabiduría sobre la política parece generar una contradicción. Pero la ciencia política es ciencia práctica la sabiduría (1141a21) es ciencia teórica y, por lo tanto, no debe haber contradicción.
Abstract. In his Nicomachean Ethics Aristotle states that the supreme end of man is happiness and that it belongs to political science to study it. Now this implies that political science is regarded by him as the most “authoritative science, the highest master science (1094a26). Aristotle's claim about the superiority of wisdom over politics seems then to introduce a contradiction. But, political science is a practical science, while wisdom (1141a21) is a theoretical one; so there should be no contradiction.
