Politics, Wealth and Food in Democratic Athens. Rethinking Aristocratic Patronage and Democratic Empowerment in the Urban World
- Fernando Notario Pacheco Universidad Complutense de Madrid
Abstract
In recent decades, the relationship between food and politics has been a frequent topic of debate among scholars related to famine and food studies. Classical studies have frequently addressed this issue as a part of the food supply mechanisms of the ancient cities. Nevertheless, the social access to food and its political background and consequences is a somewhat neglected area of analysis. This paper argues that the mechanisms of food distribution among the Athenian demos in the fifth century BC. have a significant relationship with the widening of his political entitlements. Collective attitudes and policies concerning the distribution of food and wealth are complex socio-political processes whose analysis must go beyond the individualist framework that frequently bias ancient sources.
