those individualchoices which we instinctively feel to be es-sential to our existence.Most likely,theword “freedom”then had yet to be in-vented,but the notion of freedom musthave inhabited our hearts long before itstarted visiting our minds.  \nPlato's Vision  \nThe problems of governance of the com-munity fascinated Plato.In The Republic,Plato analyzed the required qualities of thegood citizens and the good rulers of hisideal state and outlined the structures forits government and the criteria for selectingits leaders.His vision was strictly elitest.The most desirable form of government,ac-cording to The Republic,is aristocracy,therule of the best,of those who through edu-cation and natural disposition may be de-pended upon selflessly to obey the calls ofreason and wisdom rather than of ambitionand material appetites.Next comes timo-cracy,under which good soldiers,namelythe men of courage and action,fill the postswhich ought rightly to belong to the phi-losopher-kings.The third choice is oligar-chy,or plutocracy,which is one more stepremoved from the ideal;it occurs when  \ncontinued on page 430  \nWalter E.Hoadley  \nEconomist  \nSenior Research
