• In The Republic, Plato attempts to create a blueprint for a just city­ state in which its constituents prescribe to reason and live in communal harmony. 

• In his construction of an ideal city-state, Plato reevaluates the kinship (family) relations that comprise society. 

• Plato sought to replace the kinship system with a new model in which people who aren't blood relatives still interact in ways now reserved for familial relations. 

• Plato argued that the city-state forms a communal family: "every time he meets any of them, he will assume he is meeting his brother, or sister, or mother, or son, or daughter-or the child or parent of one of these."
