      ab: Since the publication of Popper's I The Open Society and Its Enemies i , Plato's political philosophy has often been recognized as a foundation for totalitarian ideologies. Piechowiak argues that this is an irony of Plato's meant to test the listeners of his Socrates (young Athenian men) moderation and courage. Piechowiak also locates fundamental values of contemporary political thought - namely, justice, freedom, and equality, as well as human dignity, in Plato's work.
