It also includes a careful examination of the usefulness and efficacy of the interdisciplinary approach to political order in the ancient world and proposes new paths for the future of such study"--  "Thucydides' History of the Peloponnesian War, which describes the war between Athens and Sparta and their allies in the Hellenic polis-world of the 5th Century BC, is considered in both, history and political science, as a text of fundamental disciplinary relevance. The two volumes suggest an inter-disciplinary, political order-oriented reading of this text, which involves the combination of the distinct perspectives of Classicists, International Relations scholars, Philologists and Political Theorists on the ancient author"--
