This research paper: 3 pages in length. To understand Plato's distinction between a sick city and a healthy city, one must also realize the dichotomy he presents in his definition. The self-sufficient status of the first city, which exists in a state of complete harmony and has no need for formal government, is the antithesis of the second city, which – although having emerged from the first city – is fraught with a social chaos born out of corruption and, thus, must have structured government to survive. Indeed, it is puzzling to think Plato would consider the second city a more appropriate model in his quest for justice, however, if one understands the true nature of his political perspective, one is not at all surprised by this contradiction. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
