ABSTRACT
Still, over his career, Aristotle did take steps to revise some of the main elements of Plato’s political vision. Aristotle’s departures from Plato had to do with Aristotle’s intention to draw a more comprehensive picture of the rational way of life than he thought Plato had done. Aristotle thus hoped to enlarge Plato’s vision of society, so that it included what Aristotle thought Plato had omitted.
