"For Aristotle, democracy is only possible within homogeneous ethnic groups, while despots have always reigned over highly fragmented societies. A multi-ethnic society is thus necessarily anti-democratic and chaotic, for it lacks philia, this profound, flesh and blood fraternity of citizens. Tyrants and despots divide and rule, they want the city divided by ethnic rivalries. The indispensable condition for ensuring a people's sovereignty accordingly resides in its unity." - Guillaume Faye
