The Athenian Revolution: Essays on Ancient Greek Democracy and Political Theory
Josiah Ober
Where did "democracy" come from, and what was its original form and meaning? The author shows that this "power of the people" crystallized in a revolutionary uprising by the ordinary citizens of Athens in 508-507 BC. He also examines the consequences of the development of direct democracy for dissident Athenian intellectuals.
