Socrates and the State
Richard Kraut
Presents an outlook on Socrates' political philosophy in Plato's early dialogues. Focusing on the Crito, this work shows that Plato explains Socrates' acceptance of the death penalty as arising not from a philosophy that requires blind obedience to every legal command but from a highly balanced compromise between the state and the citizen.
