Abstract
BARDI, Juan Bautista. La población en la reflexión jurídico-política de Jenofonte: el rol de los metecos atenienses en Póroi. Synthesis (La Plata) [online]. 2020, vol.27, n.2, pp.82-82. ISSN 0328-1205. http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.24215/1851779xe082.
The present study seeks to make explicit the philosophical foundations underlying Xenophon’s treatment of metics in the Póroi (II. 1-5). The way in which the Athenian philosopher decides to incorporate that category of population in his economical assessment of the pólis, matching them with any other type of good, is the result of a process of objectivation structured by the concept of “utility” that is rooted in the “theory of property” developed at the beginning of the Oeconomicus (I. 1-23).
Keywords : Xenophon; Póroi; Metics; Objectivation; Population; Attic law.
