El contenido de la exposición expresa una serie de ideas que ponen en debate la organización política ateniense. Sin embargo su particularidad es que no se presenta como un cuestionamiento absoluto a la democracia sino a la forma que tendría en su tiempo y, establecida la superioridad de la democracia frente a cualquier otro régimen, su propuesta se funda en restaurar aquellos principios y valores tradicionales que la hacían preferible. El orador lejos de caer en una manifiesta posición antidemocrática presenta su perspectiva como una forma de mejorar la constitución existente sobre la base de volver a las antiguas prácticas. La paradoja se encuentra en que las consecuencias de este “retorno” no podrían ser otra cosa que el cercenamiento de las libertades y capacidades que el dêmos había obtenido y que hacía de la constitución ateniense propiamente una democracia. Nuestro interés será debatir el tono de estos argumentos en relación a nuevas miradas que ven en la fuente una crítica positiva a la democracia que buscaba superar las dificultades que traería del dominio del dêmos.  application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/AcHAM/article/view/1094 10.34096/aciham.v9.1094 spa Universidad de Buenos Aires, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/AcHAM/article/view/1094/1072 Actas y comunicaciones del Instituto de Historia Antigua y Medieval; Vol. 9 (2013) 1669-7286 Athenian democracy populism Isocrates ideology Democracia ateniense populismo Isócrates ideología Isócrates, Areopagítico: a critical thinking of democracy or a democracy thought critically?
