The Republic is a Socratic dialogue, written by Plato around 380 BC, concerning justice, the order and character of the just citystate, and the just man. It is Platos bestknown work, and has proven to be one of the worlds most influential works of philosophy and political theory, both intellectually and historically.In the dialogue, Socrates talks with various Athenians and foreigners about the meaning of justice and whether the just man is happier than the unjust man. They consider the natures of existing regimes and then propose a series of different, hypothetical cities in comparison, culminating in Kallipolis, a citystate ruled by a philosopher king. They also discuss the theory of forms, the immortality of the soul, and the role of the philosopher and of poetry in society.
