I must say that unless I'm mistaken... Socrates, and by extension Plato, was a very early form of Socialist (communist). While I won't shelve this book or any of his other works, I can't say that I agree with some of his ideas. Especially his view that his Utopian society is somehow perfect and devoid of evil. Utopias require people to be controlled in order to work. He did however raise some good points.
