Contending that Plato's "Crito" does not show an allegiance between Socrates and the state that condemned him, Weiss argues that he considers the laws of the state to be more concerned with creating deference than justice - that, by submitting to his judgement, Socrates acts from a personal sense of justice rather than a set of imposed rules.
