On_Justice Knowpia

On Justice (Greek: Περὶ Δικαίου; Latin: De Justo^[1]) is a Socratic dialogue that was once thought to be the work of Plato.^[2] In the short dialogue, Socrates discusses with a friend questions about what is just and unjust.^[3]

This work is not to be confused with Plato's Republic, whose alternate title in ancient times was also On Justice.
