Hi. Today, let me make sure what justice is and how it means to a city.

The Philosophers discuss how a city can be established. And they found justice is by no means the element to form a city. Then, what they laid down and often repeated is that "each person must practice one of the pursuits in the cuty, the one for which he is naturally best suited." Lets's take the farmares in a city as example. If they put on gorgeous clothe and wear gold jewelry, and tell them to work in their farms whatever they want, a farmer won't be a farmer. Likewise, any of the others won't be characterized to the tarue type. So, please consider if it was a leader of a city. If the guardians of a city quit his work and just pretend to be, they will destroy the city. This is the point why Socrates states people should concentrate on one thing for establish a good city.
