CEVAP:

Early Greek philosopher Plato taught about a style of democracy he had experienced in Athens: “Democracy, which is a charming form of government, full of variety and disorder, and dispensing a sort of equality to equals and unequaled alike (Plato: 558C).” Plato suggested that an aristocracy led by philosopher-kings (the wisest men) would be a more just form of government. Plato claimed that government which serves individual citizen’s changing needs, instead of works to help the population as a group, would lead to mob rule. To Plato, the pursuit of freedom in a pure democracy would result in anarchy and chaos.
