Sažetak
Relying on the hermeneutical approach to the culture of Western literacy, the author highlights the different usage of the logic and the grammar of composition in Aristotle's and Kant's writings. While Aristotle in his writings records the Greek political experience, Kant turns the logic of composition and the meaning of the inherited lexis into a rational precondition of the capability to understand human experience and to establish human political community which is legitimized through reason. The author enumerates the flaws in Aristotle's and Kant's understanding of political theory. Since any theory is a form of a fictionalized reality, the author proposes a new critical reading of the traditional political theory in order to avoid the identification of fiction with reality. Moreover, we should get rid of the illusion that political theories are reliable blueprints for political action.
