How and why‚ according to Plato‚ do States decline. “…since all creates things must decay‚ even a social order of this kind cannot last for all time‚ but will decay.” (546a) Socrates recognises that his “ideal state” is unlikely to occur in the first place‚ but if it did exist‚ it will not last.

Plato: The Tripartite Soul Book IV 435c-441c The soul and justice within the soul are issues that Plato endears much time and effort into explaining. The existence of ones soul and its influence upon society is a definite argument by Plato‚ yet viewed very differently by various scholars of the time and centuries to come. Through this essay I intend to address Plato’s interest in the just soul in relation to his tripartite vision of its existence. As Plato lays out in his work The Republic
