COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE ROLE OF THE PHENOMENON OF FREEDOM IN THE VIEWS OF PLATO AND FAROBI

Аннотация

The article examines the ideas of Plato, one of the ancient philosophers, and Farabi, one of the representatives of Arab-Muslim philosophy, about the concept of freedom. It is shown that freedom is related to the law and the state. The negative aspects of freedom are interpreted. Many studies show that it is not possible to define the concept of freedom in one way, its first interpretations go back to antiquity, and they can be taken as the basis of all points of view. In the research work presented in this article, the societies that do not belong to the ideal state in Plato's socio- political views were considered one by one. As a result of the analysis, it was learned that freedom is condemned as a vice in this society. Also, the views of these two philosophers on this phenomenon were compared. The closeness between them is revealed.
