In this thought-provoking book, you'll find timeless questions explored through a fresh lens. First delving into the profound significance of Socrates' dialogical method and the inescapable nature of conflict, it ponders the rational capacities of humanity in terms of establishing harmonious communities. But this isn't merely a philosophical debate; it's a pragmatic exploration of real-world challenges.

No longer limiting itself to abstract theories, the book then seeks to navigate the practical terrain of science and politics. Drawing inspiration from Aristotle, renowned for his investigations into the intricate connections between theory, technology, ethics, and politics, it tackles the essential question: How can we reconcile divergent views?

At the book's core lies Aristotle's revolutionary concept of dialogue, which portrays truth as a delicate equilibrium between opposing forces, transcending the rigid boundaries of true and false. Join this captivating journey as the author reveals the hidden paths to meaningful coexistence in a world filled with conflicting perspectives.



Liesbeth Huppes-Cluysenaer taught legal philosophy and legal sociology at the University of Amsterdam, where she coordinated the project about leading Dutch legal theorist Paul Scholten (1875-1946). Her research area is the relevance of theory of science for Jurisprudence, about which she wrote her thesis in 1995. Since 2009 she has (co)convened special workshops on the philosophy of Aristotle at the bi-annual IVR conferences, which resulted in two edited volumes, 'Aristotle on Emotions in Law and Politics' (2018) and 'Aristotle and the Philosophy of Law: Theory, Practice, and Justice' (2013), published by Springer.

Nuno Manuel Morgadinho dos Santos Coelho is specializing in Philosophy of Law and currently professor at the University of São Paulo, serving as the Dean of the Law School in Ribeirão Preto. With a strong focus on Ancient Philosophy, Ethics, Legal Theory and Political Philosophy, he has made contributions to these fields through exploring the philosophical foundations of law in its practical implications. His in-depth studies of particularly Aristotle's works, seek to provide insight into the role of emotions in law and politics. He (co)edited 'Aristotle on Emotions in Law and Politics' (2018) and 'Aristotle and the Philosophy of Law: Theory, Practice, and Justice' (2013), published by Springer.
