"While ancient Greek thought is widely acknowledged as the major source of political ideals such as freedom and equality, ancient Greek practices including slavery, the subordination of women, and imperialism have been condemned as undemocratic and immoral. So is ancient Greek political thought still relevant today? In this wide-ranging history, Ryan Balot shows what ancient Greek political texts might mean to citizens of the twenty-first century."--Provided by publisher.

Introduction: How to do Greek political thought -- Archaic Greece and the centrality of justice -- Democratic political thinking at Athens -- Criticizing democracy in late fifth-century Athens -- Imperialism -- Fourth century revisions -- Aristotle's political thought -- Hellenistic political thought -- Epilogue: The question of politics.
