Erstausgabe
Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Fifth-century Athens is praised as the cradle of democracy and sometimes treated as a potential model for modern political theory or practice. In this daring reassessment of classical Athenian democracy and its significance for the United States today, Loren J. Samons provides ample justification for our founding fathers' distrust of democracy, a form of government they scorned precisely because of their familiarity with classical Athens. How Americans have come to embrace "democracy" in its modern form-and what the positive and negative effects have been-is an important story for all contemporary citizens. Confronting head-on many of the beliefs we hold dear but seldom question, Samons examines Athens's history in the fifth and fourth centuries B.C. in order to test the popular idea that majority rule leads to good government. Challenging many basic assumptions about the character and success of Athenian democracy, What's Wrong with Democracy? offers fascinating and accessible discussions of topics including the dangers of the popular vote, Athens's acquisitive foreign policy, the tendency of the state to overspend, the place of religion in Athenian society, and more. Sure to generate controversy, Samons's bold and iconoclastic book finds that democracy has begun to function like an unacknowledged religion in our culture, immune from criticism and dissent, and he asks that we remember the Athenian example and begin to question our uncritical worship of democratic values such as freedom, choice, and diversity. An assessment of classical Athenian democracy and its significance for the US. It offers discussion of topics such as dangers of popular vote, Athens' acquisitive foreign policy, the tendency of the state to overspend, and the place of religion in Athenian society. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

PAPERBACK, attractive copy, appears unused. SAMONS, LOREN J. Pericles and the conquest of history: a political biography. New York: Cambridge University Press, 2016, xvi, 329pp., . "As the most famous and important political leader in Athenian history, Pericles has featured prominently in descriptions and analyses of Athenian democracy from antiquity to the present day. Although contemporary historians have tended to treat him as representative of values like liberty and equality, Loren J. Samons, II demonstrates that the quest to make Athens the preeminent power in Greece served as the central theme of Pericles' career. More nationalist than humanist and less rationalist than populist, Pericles' vision for Athens rested on the establishment of an Athenian reputation for military success and the citizens' willingness to sacrifice in the service of this goal. Despite his own aristocratic (if checkered) ancestry, Pericles offered the common and collective Athenian people the kind of fame previously available only to heroes and nobleman, a goal made all the more attractive because of the Athenians' defensiveness about Athens' lackluster early history" - CONTENTS: To be an Athenian -- Curses, tyrants, and Persians (c.500-479) -- The dominance of Kimon (c.479-462/1) -- The democratic revolution (c.462/1-444/3) -- A Greek empire (c.460-445) -- Pericles and Sparta : the outbreak of the Great War (444/3-431) -- Pericles and Athenian nationalism : the conquest of history -- Athenian culture and the intellectual revolution : Pericles and the people -- Epilogue : the Periclean tradition -- APPENDICES. Pericles' military career -- Pericles' legislation -- Ahenian government in the time of Pericles -- Periclean ideas? ISBN 9781107526020.
