Faces of Moderation: The Art of Balance in an Age of Extremes
ISBN: 9780812248760 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Aristotle listed moderation as one of the moral virtues. He also defined virtue as the mean between extremes, implying that moderation plays a vital role in all forms of moral excellence.

At the same time, moderation seems to be the foundation of many contemporary democratic political regimes, because the competition between parties cannot properly function without compromise and bargaining. The success of representative government and... Aristotle listed moderation as one of the moral virtues.

Bush's foreign policy touted America as the model of democracy worth exporting to the four corners of the globe.
