  Traces Plato's depiction of how the most basic forms of human functioning and social justice contain the seed of their evolution into increasingly complex structures, as well as the seed of their degeneration. This passage-by-passage analysis also traces Plato's tendency to begin an investigation with models based on rigid distinctions.
