Sumario:[eng] The work aims in first place to emphasize that there is still one more distinction to do about the question of moral evil in Aristotle’s Ethics, namely the distinction about vice and (moral) indolence, which comes to complement the classical distinction between vice and incontinence. As there are reasonably many people that don’t fit the requirements of vice’s outline, and incontinence is presented by Aristotle as a disposition which is present in a minority of people, it’s due to find the way in which must be conceived the majority of moral agents. After a systematic work on the Aristotelian texts about moral and political issues, especially on Nicomachean Ethics, we think to have found enough evidences that Aristotle’s moral and political philosophy covers that distinction between the vicious person and the moral indolent one, distinction which would be expressed by the distinction between, respectively, the meanings of “mochtherós” and “phaúlos”, which can be supported by the literality of the Aristotelian texts. Once fixed the mentioned distinction, the following step consisted in showing the relationship between the notions of moral indolence and the majority itself, a majority which is expressed by Aristotle with the words “hoi polloí”. Again after a systematic work on the texts, that relationship is thought to be found, so that it could be said that the “polloí” are “phaúloi”, which propitiates a revision of some crucial ideas about the moral and political philosophy of Aristotle, in particular the idea of common good, now revisited from a renewed analysis of the notion of concord or “homónoia” in the light of the whole previous work.
