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.
