«La República o El Estado» is Plato's philosophical dialogue, published by Austral in paperback (432 pages, in Spanish).
In this landmark work of Western philosophy, Plato recreates a series of Socratic dialogues on justice and the organization of the ideal city-state. The conversation addresses the education of rulers, the distinction between science and appearance, the nature of the good, and the relationship between virtue and happiness—themes that would shape later thought.
Edition by Miguel Candel, with translation by Patricio de Azcárate. Part of the Austral Classics collection.
Recommended for philosophy students and readers interested in the foundations of Western political and ethical thought.
Plato was an ancient Greek philosopher of Classical Athens who is most commonly considered the foundational thinker of the Western philosophical tradition. An innovator of the literary dialogue and dialectic forms, Plato influenced all the major areas of theoretical philosophy and practical philosophy, and was the founder of the Academy, a philosophical school in Athens where Plato taught the collection of philosophical theories that would later become known as Platonism.
