Justice and Law

Strongly confirming the contention that Platonism is fundamentally Political Philosophy is the plain fact that by far his two longest works are the Republic and the Laws.  Now, he asserts that while the model of the former might be ideal, that of the latter is inferior but more practicable.  That inferiority can be gleaned from a contrast of Reason and Judgment--the former privileges the Universal over the Particular, while the latter aims to strike a balance between them. Thus, a Law can be Unjust to a Particular in some cases, but its generality is more wieldy than the particularity of Justice.  In any case, the thesis that Platonism is fundamentally Epistemology, Metaphysics, or Theology needs to explain the textual evidence that suggests otherwise.
