Democracia y plebe en Roma: análisis de las recientes interpretaciones sobre la constitución romana

Abstract

The analysis of the end of the Roman Republic has been determined in historiography by the work of R. Syme, The Roman Revolution, and by the elitist conception of the Roman constitution for a long time. Recently, changes have occurred regarding this traditional view, which insisted on the existence of a democratic component in the Roman political system. An analysis of these new approaches from the point of view of the Roman plebs historiography is proposed.
