Political theory has always made anthropological assumptions, either explicitly or implicitly which also and especially applies to the political theories developed in antiquity. This volume is the first to address the contribution made by ancient philosophers to political anthropology in its own right, presenting the most important philosophical representatives of political anthropology in discussions about specific research questions.
