The Economic Background of Plato's Communism

C. Bradford Welles

The Journal of Economic History, 1948, vol. 8, issue S1, 101-114

Abstract: It is unnecessary to insist on the differences between the communism of Plato's political writings and the modern political systems and theories of the same name. Politically, economically, and geographically the world of Marx and his followers is different from that of Greece in the fourth century b.c., and even modern Utopias are founded on modern technology.
