The Consequences of Justice

June 19, 2006

In Book 2, Glaucon wants Socrates to talk about how great justice is without mentioning its positive consequences.

Glaucon makes the argument that people only practice justice because they have to and that injustice is favorable. He only mentions the positive consequences of injustice.

Can you really make a rationale argument for injustice just because it is the right thing to do?
