The More Freedom Foundation PodcastTrump springs the Thucydides trapThe Thucydides Trap is often presented as an iron law of history—an inevitable march toward war between a rising power (China) and an established hegemon (the U.S.). But what if this narrative is more of a self-fulfilling prophecy than a historical certainty? In this episode of The More Freedom Foundation Podcast, Rob and Ruairi take a critical look at the misuse of Thucydides’ work, arguing that America resembles imperial Athens far more than it does Sparta. We break down why the "trap" is more of a political talking point than a sound historical analysis and why the real...2025-03-1053 min
The Pillars: Jerusalem, Athens, and the Western MindThucydides: The History of the Peloponnesian WarsThucydides takes one step beyond Herodotus in his approach to history. As we read his account of the Peloponnesian Wars, we’ll address the following questions: What is the difference between Thucydides’ tragic perspective of the Peloponnesian Wars and the Homerian tragedy? How does Thucydides’ description of Athenian devotion to the polis highlight a fundamental difference between Greeks and Jews? According to Thucydides in his recounting of Pericles’ funeral oration, why should the Greek choose to do the right thing? Recommended Reading: Thucydides. On Justice, Power, and Human Nature.

Books of Titans PodcastThe Peloponnesian War by ThucydidesPrior to reading Thucydides’ Peloponnesian War, I envisioned a sort of Braveheart-like battle with lines of Athenians rushing towards lines of Spartans.

This work covers years 431 - 411BC, abruptly ends mid-year, and is then picked up by Xenophon in Hellenika.Thucydides uses speeches (141 of them) to add tension & drama to the narrative.

St. John's College (Annapolis) LecturesOn Thucydides (Caleb Thompson)Recording of a lecture delivered on January 15, 2016, by Santa Fe tutor Caleb Thompson as part of the Formal Lecture Series.
Thompson says of his lecture: "Thucydides writes that during the horrors of the civil war in Corcyra, 'Words had to change their ordinary meaning and to take that which was now given them.' Or did they? We will look closely at the translation of that passage, reflect on the nature of meaning, and consider in detail the partisans' and Thucydides' use of the word 'courage.'"2022-12-2347 min
What People DoEpisode 45: Georgios on the novel-like stories of ThucydidesLast month, we heard from academic Joel Schlosser on Herodotus, inspired by my own blog on some excerpts.
Now, a nice Redditor, Georgios from Greece who's read all of Thucydides agreed to discuss the ancient historian with me. We wander close to Thucydides and far afield, but most of all his enthusiasm, enjoyment and sense of humor about the principal characters and events from these old battles and political intrigues made our chat sparkle.

The Nietzsche Podcast54: Thucydides - The Cure for Plato“My cure for Platonism has always been Thucydides.” Nietzsche saw in the first historian of Ancient Greece the will to adhere to realism, and to learn the lessons of the “harsh teacher” of war. Where he sees cowardice in Plato, Nietzsche sees courage in Thucydides, as well as the “practical justice” of allowing all the parties a fair representation of their viewpoint. Thucydides, for Nietzsche, is the epitome of the Sophist tradition, which he contrasts with the moralism of Socrates and Plato. In this episode, we discuss The History of the Peloponnesian War, Thucydides’ great contribution to world literature and history.2022-11-221h 42
New Books in Military HistoryOn Thucydides' "History of the Peloponnesian War"Sometime around 450 BC in ancient Greece, a young Thucydides went with his father to hear the historian Herodotus speak. After the lecture, Thucydides announced that writing history was his life’s calling. He later wrote History of the Peloponnesian War, a chronicle of the 27-year civil war between the Athenians and the Spartans. Thucydides believed that history is cyclical, and he saw written history as more than just record keeping. He wanted to know why certain events unfolded as they did. In fact, Thucydides is one of the first Western historians to document a historical event year by year. Pro...2022-11-1030 min

Twenty-four centuries ago the ancient Greek world erupted in a fratricidal war that pitted Athens and its allies versus Sparta and theirs. Exiled by his Athenian peers, the general Thucydides penned a history of the Peloponnesian War that drew upon eyewitness accounts and objective evidence. His quest to seek an objective truth, free from bias or national hyperbole, has earned for him the title of “father of scientific history.” Dr. Macris’ lecture, entitled “The Enduring Relevance of Thucy...2022-08-2430 min
Political Philosophy“The Strong Do What They Can and the Weak Suffer What They Must:” The Melian Dialogue (Thucydides 6)
I read the Melian Dialogue, a central episode in Thucydides’ History of the Peloponnesian War, and offer some commentary on the most significant parts. Thucydides’ realism is not identical to the Athenians’ realism, which is more deterministic and extreme.

Casting Through Ancient Greece50: Introducing Thucydides with Prof. James RommI find it very fitting that with this 50th episode we are now transitioning into a new phase of Greek history. A point that is often officially seen where the Archaic Age ends and the Classical Age starts, its also where we say goodbye to Herodotus as our main foundational source and welcome in Thucydides. While it is also a major transitional event in the Greek world coming away from the Persian invasions, with all of the political and diplomatic developments that would occur leading to conflict from within the Greek world. Though, before picking back up the narrative...2022-04-0852 min

Sovereign NationsThe Trap of the Thucydides Trap | The Causes of Things Ep. 24In the world of international politics, much has been made of the concept called the Thucydides Trap. Thucydides's Trap postulates that catastrophic war is a forgone conclusion when there is a new power rising that threatens the domination of an established power.

The Institute of World PoliticsWhat Thucydides can Teach Us About Hong Kong and China: a Critical ResponseAbout the Lecture: In 2017, Graham Allison, founding dean of the Harvard Kennedy School and former assistant secretary of defense, published “Destined For War: Can America and China Escape Thucydides’s Trap?” Allison’s Thucydides’s Trap rapidly became an influential statement on the challenge that a rising China poses to the international order created and lead by the United States. To help understand the dangers that China’s rapid economic, technological, and military growth poses to both countries, Allison draws on the classic statement on great power war — Thucydides’ History of the Peloponnesian War — to argue that the “structural stress caused when a rising...2019-12-051h 19
Ancient Greece Declassified28 Thucydides: A Historian for Our Time? w/ Emily GreenwoodThe Athenian historian Thucydides observed and chronicled the greatest military conflict of his day: the epic contest between Athens and Sparta known as the Peloponnesian War (431-404BC). Much more than just a straightforward history, his work is a study of the struggle between democracy and oligarchy, as well as a meditation on the dangers of populism and political polarization. Perhaps for this reason, Thucydides' work has experienced a surge in popularity over recent years as polarization and civil strife have spread throughout the developed world. In this episode we are joined by Emily Greenwood, professor of...2019-11-2458 min

Thucydides (c. 460-400 BC) was a Athenian general in the Peloponnesian War who, early on, recognized the War's potential for transforming the political and social structures of the period. Thus, he set out to write a detailed account of the War from its onset. His aim was to understand how wars began, its impacts on combatant forces and societies, and to raise questions about the meaning of 'just' war. His first-person perspective adds color and power to...2019-08-2832 min

As China grew stronger, the U.S. failed to recognize Beijing would increasingly assert its own vision for the international order, thereby challenging the American-led global system.

Carnegie Council PodcastsDestined for War: Can America and China Escape Thucydides's Trap? with Graham AllisonThucydides is not saying that the inevitable frictions between a rising power and a ruling one will always lead to war, says Allison. The danger is when "third-party actions become provocations to which one or the other feels obliged to react, to which the other primary actor feels obliged to respond, which then leads to a cascade, often dragging people where they do not want to go."
