Abstract
Addresses the importance of informal arguments in Alcibiades Major, and why the dialogue is relevant to modern readers. My hope is that Politics in Socrates’ Alcibiades will engage a wide range of readers, including scholars, students of ancient Greek philosophy, decision theorists, political theorists and others working on more contemporary analytical problems in the history of philosophy. Alcibiades’ ambition, intellectual perspectives, counterfactual questioning, ancient inspiration, modern philosophical discussions.
