This interpretation is aligned to Leo Strauss, as can be noted by the title of the interpretation, and emphasizes that with the creation of the Aristocratic city, Plato attempts to demonstrate through Socrates that it is impossible for the just city to be constructed in the phenomenal world (Marshall, n.d).
