What is the true nature of "dikaiosyne "(justice)? In the dialogue
that forms Book I of "The Republic" Socrates meets the arguments
first of Polemarchus, that justice means speaking the truth and
paying one's dues in the broadest sense; then of Thrasymachus, that
it is nothing more than the power which the strong exercise over
the weaker members of society. In reality, Book I concludes,
justice, self-control ("sophrosyne"), and virtue ("arete") are
'natural'; the city which displays them is most truly free; the
individuals who possess them will achieve their true destiny.
