Principios e questões de philosophia politica (Vol. 1 of 2) by António Cândido
"Principios e questões de philosophia politica" by António Cândido is a scholarly treatise on political philosophy written in the late 19th century. The work delves into the scientific conditions of suffrage and presents a critical examination of political thought and its evolution in society. With references to prominent philosophers such as Turgot, Kant, and Condorcet, the text seeks to situate political philosophy within the broader context of sociology, emphasizing the importance of
empirical observation in understanding social phenomena. At the start of this philosophical exploration, the author articulates the conception of politics as an experimental science. He critiques earlier philosophical models that relied on absolute principles, arguing instead for a more nuanced understanding of society as a natural phenomenon that evolves according to discernible laws. Through a detailed discussion of historical developments and the influences of key thinkers, the text sets the stage for a more systematic approach to sociology and the complexities inherent in political structures, advocating for a scientific basis for political analysis and social theory.
