Summary/Abstract: Due to their natural sociability, men have eventually gathered in a politically organized community. Once realized, this association is required to demonstrate its superiority and this thing can be established by means of its ability to perform the functions for which it was “invented.” Aristotle lays the basis for both the theory of good governance and the ways to achieve it. The purpose of a regime that is underlain by good governance should be the happiness of the members of the political community.
