Since the close of the Cold War, however, there has been little in the way of a concentrated scholarship renewing this interdisciplinary dialogue. This book, the first of two monographs exploring Thucydides, consists of contributions by world-class scholars on political order, using the framework of the Peloponnesian War to explore the historiography and political development of the ancient world. Analyzing both the original source material of the Athenian order as well as various interpretations of such material, this book will appeal to historians and political scientists alike in their re-examinations of Thucydides and his world"
