The Function and Organization of Authority

RECONSTRUCTING THE CLASSICS

Chapter 2 "Plato and the politics of beauty"

The function and organization of the government is to carry out practical tasks that benefit society as a whole, such as, defense, schools, roads, currency and etc. The authority that is  within the government is upheld to ensure and continue moral order amongst society. The "moral order" however, is of religious pretenses, and not of rational ones.

MY INTERPRETATION OF PLATO'S VIEW ON T.F.O.A

Social instability and personal anxiety is inevitable under the authority of a society that is ruled by irrational pretenses. True priorities are only seen through rational and logical perspectives, that of which can only be upheld by people who understand and accept the idea of logic and reason behind human nature. Those of whom who can understand this will be best suited in implementing rash and just authority over the people, thus ensuring social stability.
