Resumo

A abordagem ética de Aristóteles é considerada útil para compreender o papel que as artes marciais desempenham na vida do artista marcial. O filósofo neo-aristotélico Alasdair MacIntyre, no seu trabalho clássico After Virtue [Depois da Virtude], introduz um conceito “eudaimonica”, uma forma de actividade social, na qual a procura da excelência leva a que o praticante se converta numa pessoa melhor. Argumenta-se que as artes marciais podem ser descritas como tais práticas. Este enfoque reconcilia um amplo conjunto de perspectivas divergentes sobre as artes marciais e descreve coerentemente como o treino do artista marcial pode contribuir a uma alta funcionalidade das próprias relações e papéis sociais, conectando as artes marciais com o processo global de se converter num ser humano moralmente excelente através do desenvolvimento das virtudes.
