A Better Government

Paper Summary:

The paper discusses that with an ever-changing rotation of leadership and followers, there can be a greater tendency toward the greater good. This falls in line with our ideas about truth; since they are not always stable, they can always offer new insights into the human condition and what may be best for humanity.

From the Paper:

"Socrates: So my friends, I would like to talk about politics and the underlying problem of creating a just society for government. Although I strongly agreed with many I have argued with that the ideological premise of a just society is impossible, I still believe that humankind may have the ability to imagine better government. With the truth being an ever-changing and corruptible element of what is right or wrong about politics, knowledge of a just society might very well be improbable (Plato 2.32-35). However, perhaps we can assume that universal truths exist and the right and wrong are the foundation of a good society."
