Plato

Plato did not have an explicit theory of natural law (he rarely used the phrase "natural law" except in Gorgias 484 and Timaeus 83e), but his concept of nature, according to John Wild, contains some of the elements of many natural law theories. According to Plato, we live in an orderly universe. The basis of this orderly universe or nature are the forms, most fundamentally the Form of the Good, which Plato calls "the brightest region of Being". The Form of the Good is the cause of all things, and a person who sees it is led to act wisely. In the Symposium, the Good is closely identified with the Beautiful, and Plato describes how Socrates 's experience of the Beautiful enabled him to resist the temptations of wealth and sex. In the Republic, the ideal community is "a city which would be established in accordance with nature".
