This chapter deals with Aristotle's theory of justice. It follows the distinction between general and particular justice and focuses on analysis of the latter.
It shows in what sense the principle of Aristotelian justice corresponds to the mean, and it points out the importance of judicial procedures when it comes to particular justice. Next, the chapter connects these findings with Aristotle's theory of man as a political animal.
It shows how the human ability of speech, logos, is directly connected to Aristotle's theory of justice. Finally, the chapter makes some remarks about the possible uses of Aristotle's theory in the contemporary world.
