Abstract

This work aims to justify that, although it is true that there are differences between Aristotelian and Schmittian philosophy, there is a point of connection between both in what refers to prudence. In particular, we intend to demonstrate that in Schmitt’s description of the role of the judge in Law and Judgment (1912) and On the three types of juristic thought (1934) ideas of the practical philosophy of the Stagirite are present.
