Then‚ through the unrelenting questioning of Socrates‚ Polemarchus’ definition evolves into "doing good to friends and harm to enemies"

Plato would say justice is the act of carrying out one’s duties as he is fitted with. Moreover‚ if one’s duties require one to lie or commit something else that is not traditionally viewed along with justice; that too is considered just by Plato’s accounts in ‘The Republic.’ I believe Plato’s account of justice‚ and his likely defense
