Summary/Abstract: No complete economic analysis can be found in the work of Aristotle. His economic studies are predominantly geared towards a critique of the mercantilist«: views and practices of ancient Athens. His statements on the division of labour, on ownership and on money issue from the narrow framework of a traditional (agrarian) economy. The moral and political framework of Aristotle’s economics suited the feudal rulers; this strengthened the influence of Aristotle's thought in the Middle Ages. To-day production, communication, distribution, and consumption are getting increasingly internationalized. Aristotle’s economic teaching has therefore little topical relevance.
