We speak often of Democracy, but do we really know what it is? We point to Athens as an example. But what was Greek Democracy really like? A conversation with Dr. Paul Cartledge, A.G. Leventis Senior Research Fellow at the University of Cambridge, author of "Democracy: A Life."   A lot of topics here and while we chose not to break it up in 2 parts, you might want to listen to it in 2 parts.  Music from Lee Rosevere on this episode.
