The seminar will focus on the reading and analysis of key texts on the theory of mixed constitutions, which is considered to be one of the most important and influential ancient theories, since most constitutions of modern "democratic" states are based on this theory. Through the interpretation of selected passages from Plato's Laws, Aristotle's Politics, Polybius' History, and Cicero's On the State, we will explore how ancient thinkers understood the balance of power, the stability of the political system, and its resistance to decline. The seminar will offer a space for discussion of the relevance of these ideas in the contemporary political context.
