Resumo: Over the last decades, it is possible to observe a growing interest in the contributions of Aristotelian moral and political thought to the economic phenomenon. Some researchers tried to demonstrate that the modern price theories originate from the corpus aristotelicum. In this line of investigation, Aristotle has already been seen as the father of labor theory of value (Gordon, 1964); the demand-based theory of value (Soudek, 1952); and neither (Meikle, 1995). Other researchers claim to find theoretical insights in Aristotle that help to reshape our own economic vision (Sen, 1987). This article is part of both efforts. I present the following thesis: in Aristotle, prices are linked to the reciprocity and friendship of the political community. Modern economic science ignores this foundation and, as a result, it confuses the means with the ends of exchange. Thus, the article seeks to facilitate the revival of justice talk in the economic debate.

Alguns pesquisadores buscaram demonstrar que as teorias dos preços modernas possuem origem no corpus aristotelicum. Nesse caso, Aristóteles já foi visto como pai da teoria do valor trabalho (Gordon, 1964); da teoria do valor baseada na demanda (Soudek, 1952); e de nenhuma das duas (Meikle, 1995). Outros pesquisadores afirmam encontrar em Aristóteles considerações teóricas que auxiliam na reformulação de nossa própria visão econômica (Sen, 1987). Esse artigo se insere em ambos os esforços. A nossa tese é que, em Aristóteles, os preços estão vinculados à reciprocidade e à amizade da comunidade política. Como a ciência econômica moderna ignora esse fundamento, ela acaba por confundir os meios com os fins da troca. Desse modo, o artigo procura contribuir para reavivar o devido lugar da justiça no debate econômico.Universidade Federal do Ceará2021-05-08info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-reviewed Articleapplication/pdfhttp://periodicos.ufc.br/argumentos/article/view/6067910.36517/Argumentos.26.5Argumentos - Revista de Filosofia; No 26 (2021); 54-63Argumentos - Periódico de Filosofia; Núm. 26 (2021); 54-63Argumentos - Revista de Filosofia; n. 26 (2021); 54-631984-42551984-4247reponame:Argumentos : Revista de Filosofia (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Ceará (UFC)instacron:UFCporhttp://periodicos.ufc.br/argumentos/article/view/60679/196817Copyright (c) 2021 Argumentos - Revista de Filosofiainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMaximo, Mário Motta2021-07-01T16:38:15Zoai:periodicos.ufc:article/60679Revistahttp://www.filosofia.ufc.br/argumentosPUBhttp://periodicos.ufc.br/argumentos/oaiargumentos@ufc.br||1984-42551984-4247opendoar:2021-07-01T16:38:15Argumentos : Revista de Filosofia (Online) - Universidade Federal do Ceará (UFC)false
