This article focuses on the concepts of techn? and dynamis in Plato’s Gorgias, and thereby aims to bring out a relatively unnoticed aspect of the unity of the dialogue. In the earlier part of Socrates’ dialogue with Polus, the discussion centers around whether rhetoric is a techn?, where the underlying assumption is that a techn? is more powerful than a mere empeiria. But in the following discussion the focus is shifted to a question that is more directly connected to the concept of dynamis, i.e., whether a rhetorician is powerless or not. Through a careful reading of the relevant passage, this article shows that Socrates’ refutation of Polus has a serious limitation: it assumes a unitary conception of power and in doing so, rules out what we might call an ‘instrumental conception of power’. What is interesting, however, is the fact that Plato himself is clearly aware of the limitation of Socrates’ refutation. This awareness is expressed by the appearance of the strongest opponent to Socrates, Callicles. Callicles clashes with Socrates in relation to another aspect of the concept of power: power as the capacity of self-defense. In this respect, Callicles remains basically undefeated and unconvinced to the end of the dialogue. This unique dramatic setup indicates that Plato takes an important philosophical task or challenge upon himself, the answers to which are given in his later dialogues, such as in the Republic.
