In particular, in this paper I want to suggest that the Protagoras, Gorgias, and Meno 7 offer a unified moral conception, as worthy an alternative to enlightenment theories as the Neo-Aristotelian views of MacIntyre and Nussbaum. All of these implications have as their guiding notion "self-education": the idea that we must each take the responsibility upon ourselves for our own paideia.
Protagoras and Meno Characters
M 95c 12 , Socrates wonders whether this is possible, and whether it would really be possible as a techne P ab. The bulk of the Protagoras therefore focusses on the question of the unity of arete in order to determine whether Protagoras really practices a techne. In the Gorgias , though, Socrates himself claims to practice the politike techne:. G d Socrates therefore lays claim to the techne Protagoras and Gorgias the former explictly [P a], the latter implicitly [G e, a] believed themselves to practice.

But what could this mean? And how could such a claim be aligned with the frequent avowal of Socratic ignorance e. P c-d, G a, M 71a-c? In my view, the techne Socrates is pointing to here just is his practice of conversing with interlocutors.
More precisely, this is the techne of focussing his interlocutor on a particular kind of question, the what-is question see P ed, G da, M 71a-b, 86c-e. More on this below. In what may seem to be a frustratingly formal sense, Socrates himself actually answers the "what-is-arete?

Thus the kind of unity Socrates holds that arete has is not fully grasped by either the biconditional interpretation of Vlastos 16 or the unity-of-a-psychic-state interpretation of Penner. It must therefore be a form. Rather than thinking the unity of the form in terms of the unity of a thing, thereby inviting the objection that this is merely reduplicating some part of "this world," these dialogues invite us to think the unity of the form in terms of the unity of a path of questioning or of a single subject matter.
P c-d, G d, a-e : he wonders whether there is some "one thing" at which their teaching aims, toward which their speeches are focussed.

His own dialectical practice his "political craft" is always focussed in this way on the form of arete: hence he always tries to draw his interlocutors toward the what-is-arete? Socrates uses the discussion with the slave to point Meno, who has lost his way toward arete, in the direction of a certain kind of knowledge. Meno appears to agree that the slave is better off and that he has not been harmed.
That is, Meno needs to see that an active recognition of his own shortcomings would help him, not harm him. Built on the Johns Hopkins University Campus.
