Confronting Tyranny: Ancient Lessons for Global Politics

Confronting Tyranny: Ancient Lessons for Global Politics
Confronting Tyranny, by Toivo Koivukoski and David Edward Tabachnick
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers | 2005 | ISBN-10: 074254401X | 256 pages | 3.5 MB

Motivated by the reentry of tyranny into political discourse and political action, this new work compares ancient and contemporary accounts of tyranny in an effort to find responses to current political dilemmas and enduring truths. In our globally interconnected world, tyrants are no longer dangerous solely to their subjects and neighbors, but to all. This is where the debate begins as the lessons of classical political philosophy are thrown into the present political crisis of understanding and action.
