Plato's Paradox? Guardians and Philosopher-Kings

Christopher M. Duncan and Peter J. Steinberger

American Political Science Review, 1990, vol. 84, issue 4, 1317-1322

Abstract: For centuries scholars have engaged in interpreting the meaning of Plato's Republic. In this exchange, Peter Steinberger and Christopher Duncan debate the role of guardians and philosopher-kings in the ancient city. This controversy is ignited by Steinberger's essay on Platonic rulers in the December 1989 issue of this Review.
