dc.description.abstractThe analysis of democracy we find in Plato’s Republic was often an object of derision. In this paper I intend to show that, granting that Plato has a peculiar perspective of the matter, his position does not correspond to the caricature imputed by the critics. My purpose is to argue that in Plato’s view human characters are democratic when they take freedom of indifference as the prevailing good. On the other hand, it applies to political regimes when their fundamental rule is the individual authority, sustained by the practice of tolerance. I conclude by pointing out that, although democracy is an equivocal term when dealing with ancients and moderns, the questions raised by the Republic are still alive in the discussions about freedom and political pluralism.eng
dc.description.abstractA análise da democracia que se encontra na República de Platão foi frequentemente objeto de derrisão. Neste trabalho pretendo mostrar que, ainda que concedendo que Platão tenha uma visão peculiar da questão, sua posição não corresponde à caricatura que lhe atribuem os críticos. Trata-se de argumentar que aos olhos de Platão os caracteres humanos são democráticos quando tomam a liberdade de indiferença como bem prevalente. Por outro lado, ela se aplica a regimes políticos quando a sua regra fundamental é a autoridade individual, sustentada pela prática da tolerância. Concluo ressaltando que, embora democracia seja um termo equívoco ao referir-se a antigos e modernos, as questões levantadas pela República ainda vigoram nas discussões sobre a liberdade e o pluralismo político.por
