The thesis of the philosopher-king, because it subjects political action to the possession of an art, that of governance, was presented as anti-democratic. It is undeniable that Plato, in formulating this thesis, in the Athenian political context of the 5th century, presented it as such. However, the socio-political context is no longer the same. From Athens to the present day, democracy has evolved enormously in the direction of its improvement. And there is much to suggest that our democratic model is strongly inspired by the government advocated by Plato.
