Recenzii
“The book is an extremely valuable addition to thesocial science literature on democracy and will be appreciated by scholars inpolitical economy, political science and sociology as well as ancient history.… P. has offered a book whose arguments will fascinate and intrigue the scholarand the uninitiated alike.” (George Tridimas, The Classical Review, Vol. 65(2), October, 2015)
"This book offers a most useful and an original contribution to the field the field being the very broad one of the interrelationship between 'ancient (Greek)' and 'modern' democracy, and the possible benefits for modern of studying ancient. It both engages with and takes forward the modern scholarly discussion, principally by redefining and refining the nature of 'equality' in the economic as opposed to the political sphere of ancient Athenian democracy." - Paul Cartledge, A.G. Leventis Senior Research Fellow, Clare College, Cambridge, UK
