Episode Details

Everyone's favorite philosopher who gives no specifics on how to achieve his utopia: Karl Marx! And Plato, too! In this episode, we look at two of Plato's political (or antipolitical) dialogues: Gorgias and Republic. We look at the varying definitions of justice, whether it's just to act according to your power, and how Plato's ideal society was structured. We look at all this with a critical eye, but we do appreciate many of the opinions on justice and the faults with lying politicians.  Follow us on Twitter! @UlmtdOpinions
