Abstract
In this paper I study the reasons that led Aristotle to reject the autarchy of virtue, namely, the view that the exercise of virtue suffices to achieve happiness (i.e. eudaimonía). I then sketch of the main features that theory of action should have to enable happiness not to depend on external achievements (versus Aristotle).
