This volume contains eighteen essays by established and younger historians that examine non-democratic alternative political systems and ideologies–oligarchies, monarchies, mixed constitutions–along with diverse forms of communal and regional associations such as ethnoi, amphiktyonies, and confederacies. The papers, which span the length and breadth of the Hellenic world highlight the immense political flexibility and diversity of ancient Greek civilization.
