Abstract

Plato does not belong to the most favorite authors of sociological theory, even though he created a general theory of society which breaks with the ancient mythology of man. Critical approach to Plato may be examplified by Alvin Gouldner’s monumental work Enter Plato. Nonetheless it helps to explain the negative attitudes Plato’s philosophy is nowadays confronted with, even though a number of Platonic thoughts have leaked into the modern social theory.
