Aristotle and Plato
Despite Plato being a main contributor to Aristotle's developmental teachings in philosophy and economics, they both had very contrarian opinions when it came to theories. As an early thinker Aristotle was quite apprehensive as a student often opposing his teachers theories and ideas. Aristotle started making his way into the center of Greek philosophy shortly after Plato had died which prompted him to criticize many of Plato’s early philosophical teachings at the time. He was known to be quite critical towards Plato's philosophical ideas and even states that Plato's Forms “were irreverent to human conduct”. He completely denounces Plato's theory of soul body dualism stating that “the soul is the first actuality of a natural body that is potentially alive.” This contradicts Plato who believed that the soul was the central entity of a being. He does however praise Socrates' acceptance of universals, himself believing there is no adherence towards the acceptance of the existence of universal forms. Aristotle would later be known as a thinker who highly regarded universal forms as a uniform entity not attached toward each object or concept. Plato and Aristotle differed greatly in their overall nature in how one thinks of philosophers. Plato sought our theories in a more abstract and theoretical way while Aristotle used a more experimental and practical approach. Despite this both thinkers contributed greatly to the early formations of philosophical theories that continue to influence how we see economics, politics and social behavior. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nehakonduru (talk • contribs) 06:02, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
