Is it possible to create an ideal state today?

Abstract

The state as a theoretical, practical and polymorphic term marked the key historical moments of humanity, and for the most part was the bearer of the events contained in those epochs. States are born in conflicts, arise out of sheer necessity and represent the ugliest, and at the same time the most necessary, form of organizing the political community. In the ancient period, the state represents one indivisible and factual entity, sublime and noble, the final reflection of the human being in an attempt to rationalize social relations within and around himself. The interpretation of the state as such gave birth to Plato's theory of the state as an achievable ideal. Neoplatonisms, which are contained in the teachings of the Christian church, eugenicists and authoritarian regimes from the "age of ideologies", have reached our present. The ideal state is a metaphysical category, and the reason for its long life lies in the utopian works of the past and the underdeveloped political consciousness of the present.
