Laws

Focusing on the practical aspects of governance, this work by Plato contrasts with his earlier Utopian vision in The Republic. It explores the realistic structure of society and the complexities of human self-governance. While it includes ideas that may seem outdated, such as views on slavery and gender roles, it offers a profound inquiry into enduring societal questions that resonate in contemporary discussions. This final dialogue reflects on the nature of culture and the challenges of creating a just society.
