Author Description

"For I say that there will be more accusers of you than there are now; accusers whom hitherto I have restrained: and as they are younger they will be more severe with you, and you will be more offended at them." - Socrates Aristokratia III: Hellas returns us to the foundation of modern politics, deep in the history of ancient Greece. From the Homeric heroes and the birth of Aristocracy through to the rise (and subsequent collapse) of Democracy, the ideas of Plato, and the military might of Sparta - Aristokratia III presents Greece to us in its days of glory - and brutally reminds us that the failures of their political system were eerily similar to our own. Continuing through to the modern era, we are then presented with new philosophies, articles, book reviews, and topics relevant to contemporary society.
