The Allegory of the Cave was intriguing because we as humans don’t often think about how we are perceiving something and that maybe we are wrong. Humans have a hard time seeing things from a different point of view, but it is a very important tool in life and for also becoming a good leader. Plato’s idea connects to Mabey’s claim that our leaders are becoming more divided from the communities. If the leaders were able to perceive stuff differently or even knew that their perception was always right then maybe we wouldn’t be stuck in this dilemma.<\/p>\n

In fact, I don’t think there is a set answer. I believe that the society needs to know what they want in their leader, and then choose them. Some people won’t be happy with the decision, but at least it is majority. There is no best way to change the leaders and their roles, it depends on what the society and community want.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
