El presente libro ofrece una aproximación integral al fenómeno de la pobreza en la Atenas clásica. El estudio parte, para ello, de una concepción multidimensional y dinámica de la pobreza con el objetivo no solo de proporcionar una mejor y más completa comprensión de dicho fenómeno, sino también del modo en el que este se imbrica en el universo cultural y mental de Atenas. El análisis histórico de la pobreza se enriquece, además, con enfoques y aportaciones realizadas a este campo de estudio desde las ciencias sociales, especialmente desde la sociología y la antropología social y cultural.

“…Recent work by political theorists on Plato has been surveyed in this journal by Danielle Allen (2006); Peter Euben (2003), John Wallach (2001), and Sarah Monoson (2000 are particularly concerned to relate Plato -his dialogic practice as well as his philosophical ideas, to the practice of modern democracy. There has been renewed attention among classicists (Ludwig 2002) and political theorists (Zumbrunnen 2006) to Aristophanes as a critic of democracy with unique and valuable insights for students of democracy. Aristotle's attempt to create a "democracy of distinction" by merging democratic with aristocratic elements is fruitfully explored by Jill Frank (2005).…”

The question of what the ancient Greeks can tell us about democracy can be answered by reference to three fields that have traditionally been pursued with little reference to one another: ancient history, classical political theory, and political science. These fields have been coming into more fruitful contact over the last 20 years, as evidenced by a spate of interdisciplinary work. Historians, political theorists, and political scientists interested in classical Greek democracy are increasingly capable of leveraging results across disciplinary lines. As a result, the classical Greek experience has more to tell us about the origins and definition of democracy, and about the relationship between participatory democracy and formal institutions, rhetoric, civic identity, political values, political criticism, war, economy, culture, and religion.
