Minos: What Is Law? – Plato’s Fragmentary Dialogue on Justice and Political Philosophy

What if the law wasn’t just what is written—but what ought to be?

In Minos, Plato examines the very essence of law in a philosophical dialogue that challenges the foundation of political authority. Socrates asks whether true law is simply what cities declare—or if it must reflect something deeper, more eternal, and more just.

This modern translation captures the gravity and insight of Plato’s early political thought, providing a brief but powerful introduction to the eternal question: What is justice?

What you'll discover inside:

• A Philosophical Inquiry into the Nature of Law – Beyond rules, toward universal truth

• Socratic Method Applied to Politics – Questioning whether law equals justice

• A Rare and Fragmentary Text Revived – One of Plato’s boldest but most overlooked dialogues

• A Contemporary, Clear Translation – Ideal for modern listeners engaged in legal, ethical, or political thought

Step into one of Plato’s most daring conversations—and reconsider what gives law its true legitimacy.
