It shows how the idea of democracy has kept its power in a world which is utterly different from the world of classical Greece and how the questions which the greeks first raised about the meaning of democratic rule still loom overhuman political and economic institutions in a setting in which no modern population can ever rule in practice, day by day, as the Athenian demos ruled.
