Note 57 — B. Interpretation of Property.
Reading edition
Plato’s view on property is expressed in The Republic, bk. III, IV, V and VIII. Then in The Laws, bk. III, where he speaks of distribution of land and equalizing of property. In the same work, he further on says that property does not belong to the individual but to the whole family, and property and family alike belong to the State, The Laws, b. XI.
