| Why it’s on the list | Aristotle’s treatise on the polis — how cities come to be, what a citizen is, how monarchy, oligarchy, democracy and their degenerate forms differ and why each is unstable, and what constitution best suits a given people. Empirical where the Republic is ideal: his school collected and compared real constitutions before generalising. |
