The Laws by Plato
ISBN: 9780140449846 PUBLISHER: Penguin Books Ltd FORMAT: Paperback PAGES: 592 PUBLICATION DATE: 27.01.2005 DIMENSIONS: 198mmX129mmX25mm 404grams
DESCRIPTION: In the Laws, Plato describes in fascinating detail a comprehensive system of legislation in a small agricultural utopia he named Magnesia. His laws not only govern crime and punishment, but also form a code of conduct for all aspects of life in his ideal state - from education, sport and religion to sexual behaviour, marriage and drinking parties. Plato sets out a plan for the day-to-day rule of Magnesia, administered by citizens and elected officials, with supreme power held by a Council. Although Plato's views that citizens should act in complete obedience to the law have been read as totalitarian, the Laws nonetheless constitutes a highly impressive programme for the reform of society and provides a crucial insight into the mind of one of Classical Greece's foremost thinkers.
