“THE POLIS”, ITS NECESSITY, STRUCTURE, AND DEGRADATION: PLATO AT HIS BEST

Abstract

Plato not always stands intellectually on a same hight of intelligence; sometimes, he seems to have not understood that he had degraded the level of his reflection. This study is not dedicated to such intellectual moments, rather to presenting some of the fundamental points of his intuitions on the transcendental structure of human reality, with which he discovers the logical and economical foundations of the “polis”, as well as, for example, the sameness of the ontological structure both of men and women. Plato presents to the world the logical and ontological foundation of the “polis”.
