In The Laws, Plato describes in detail a comprehensive system of legislation in a small agricultural utopia he named Magnesia.

Very Thoughtful

Through conversations, the discussion of laws, regulations are constructed upon on human. The majority of the book is well thought, especially during the age when the book was written. Applying to the current age, some extreme cases might require special examination. Overall, it is very well thought.
