Drawing on Plato's insights, he explores the connection between personal character and different forms of government, shedding light on the state of democracy today and the impact of character on political choices.

In this series, philosopher and author, Albert A. Anderson, explores the modern world through ancient philosophers such as Socrates, Plato and Aristotle.
