Pensando el trabajo a través de Aristóteles

In order to answer the question about the place that occupies the work inside the aristotelian conceptions, this paper will investigate its definitions and functions. In this sense, it will be necessary to locate, firstly, the category of work inside the three genres of activities that Aristotle raises (it is to say, theory, praxis and poiesis, which will command us to think about the difference between kínesis and energeia), as well as in its relations with the political-economic thought that this thinker has bequeathed. Likewise, we will investigate the nature of the link between mankind and the phýsis, through the work, to be able to think the entail with the time and with the possibility of a happy life.
