Thucydides' book on the war between the Peloponnesians and the Athenians has been considered a historical chronicle. By contrast, Peter Ahrensdorf here makes the case that it is better understood as a work of philosophy. Thucydides, he argues, focuses on this particular war because of its theoretical significance.
