Aristotle’s Ghost is a multiple hybrid: history, comparative government, political theory, developmental economics, conceptual analysis, history of ideas, and memoir. The author discusses his work with his alter ego, Aristotle, often by comparing Ancient Greece with the American history from Plymouth Rock to Black Lives Matter. Its dialogic structure invites the reader to come to his or her own conclusions about the complexities of the American experience.
