Finished Book 8 & commentary.
Focuses on the 4 flawed regimes. Socrates describes a chain of decline starting from aristocracy:
Aristocracy → timocracy (due to failures in breeding guardians).
Timocracy → oligarchy (as rulers prioritize wealth over honor).
Oligarchy → democracy (when the poor revolt against wealth-based rule).
Democracy → tyranny (when a "champion of the people" seizes power).
