The participation of citizens in decision-making is crucial for the philosopher, who emphasizes that the virtuous should take the reins of the city. The citizen is defined as one who participates "in judgment and authority." This view is supported by contemporary citizens and wise thinkers, such as Cornelius Castoriadis, who argues that the participation of all through democratic processes is the foundation of direct democracy. Social prosperity requires freedom, equality, justice, and solidarity in cities. Proper education is also required for both rulers and those ruled, which will make them capable politicians and virtuous citizens. Ms. Oikonomou's study on the influences of Aristotelian philosophy on the work of Castoriadis reveals significant issues that concern modern humanity, leading us to better design a peaceful and happy society.
