El estudio de las relaciones políticas en la isla de Creta durante gran parte de la Edad de Bronce ha generado algunos de los debates más longevos enla arqueología del Mediterráneo oriental. Esto se debe –mayormente– a la ausencia de fuentes escritas descifradas, a las peculiaridades historiográficasque ha tenido el estudio de la cultura minoica y a la compleja naturaleza de la evidencia arqueológica de la isla.Ante esto, este trabajo tiene al menos tres propósitos: el primero es hacer una revisión de los modelos políticos utilizados para el período Neopalacial (ca.1700-1450 a.C.) en la isla de Creta; en segundo lugar, busca resaltar las nuevas tendencias teóricas sobre este tópico marcando sus respectivos puntos fuertesy sus posibles falencias argumentativas; por último, tiene la intención de enfatizar el valor de las dinámicas sociales por sobre los esquemas ideados por losacadémicos que han abordado esta problemática. De este modo, se concluirá presentando cuáles son las dinámicas de poder político más importantes duranteel período Neopalacial que se han marcado hasta el momento y se destacará por qué es necesario introducir algunos postulados de la antropología políticaen este debate.
