{"product_id":"interstate-relations-in-classical-greece-polly-low-9780521124287","title":"Interstate Relations in Classical Greece: Morality and Power","description":"In this book Dr Low explores the assumptions and principles which determined the conduct and representation of interstate politics in Greece during the fifth and fourth centuries BC. She employs a wide range of ancient evidence, both epigraphic and literary, as well as some contemporary theoretical approaches from the field of International Relations. Taking a thematic rather than a chronological approach, she addresses topics such as the nature of interstate society in the Greek world; the sources, scope and enforcement of 'international law'; the nature of interstate ethics and morality; interventionism and imperialism; and the question of change and stability. She argues that classical Greece's reputation for unrestrained and unsophisticated diplomacy is undeserved, and shows that relations between Greek city-states were shaped by and judged according to a complex network of customs, beliefs and expectations which pervaded all areas of interstate behaviour.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Polly Low\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 052112428X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521124287\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/03\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 324\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.92lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.50w x 0.80d","brand":"Polly Low","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44119784227071,"sku":"9780521124287","price":53.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d94cf055-523e-4d24-903b-fe3c37dc51dd.jpg?v=1687410926","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/interstate-relations-in-classical-greece-polly-low-9780521124287","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
