Challenging the standard conception of the history of political thought, Roslyn Weiss proposes that political philosophy begins not with the superemacy of the state over the citizen but with the primacy of the citizen in his deliberative exercise of reason with respect to justice.
In Socrates Dissatisfied, Weiss argues against the prevailing view that the personified Laws in the latter part of the Crito are Socrates'' spokesmen. She reveals and explores many indications that Socrates and the Laws are, both in style and in substance, adversaries. Deft, provocative, and compelling, with new translations providing groundbreaking interpretations of key passages, Socrates Dissatisfied challenges the standard conception of the history of political thought.
