The Just City is a philosophical idea imagining a society designed to be fair, equitable, and moral, based on principles from Plato’s philosophical writings. It envisions creating a community where rulers are wise, justice is upheld, and everyone’s needs are considered equally. The concept encourages thoughtful planning to ensure that laws, social roles, and resources promote overall well-being and fairness for all citizens. Essentially, it’s an ideal called the "perfect city"—a harmony of morality and justice—serving as a model for ethical urban development.
