«La República» is Plato's philosophical dialogue on justice and the ideal state, published by Alianza Editorial in paperback (608 pages, in Spanish).
In this dialogue Socrates converses with several Athenians about justice and the best way to organize the city. Plato examines education, ethics, politics and knowledge, and opposes the order of reason to corruption. The ideal city governed by philosopher-kings is presented as a diagnosis applicable to real regimes.
It belongs to the Clásicos de Grecia y Roma collection from Alianza Editorial, with translation by José Manuel Pabón and Manuel Fernández-Galiano and introduction by Manuel Fernández-Galiano.
For university students and readers interested in political philosophy and classical thought.
Plato was an ancient Greek philosopher of Classical Athens who is most commonly considered the foundational thinker of the Western philosophical tradition. An innovator of the literary dialogue and dialectic forms, Plato influenced all the major areas of theoretical philosophy and practical philosophy, and was the founder of the Academy, a philosophical school in Athens where Plato taught the collection of philosophical theories that would later become known as Platonism.
