Sommario/riassunto

This volume challenges preconceptions of Athenian politics and history. It sets out to demonstrate that the widely received view that Hellenistic Athens and her political leaders were radically different from their Classical counterparts is fundamentally flawed. Through a re-examination of the internal politics of Hellenistic Athens, both in terms of its key institutions and its political leaders, After Demosthenes provides a comprehensive analysis of Athenian political life from 322-262 BC. Drawing on literary and epigraphic evidence the book identifies those who participated in the governing of Athens, and their motives for doing so, and redefines the nature of Athenian political ideology in the process. The leading political figures, each of whom can be identified with a particular ideological viewpoint, are explored in a series of biographical studies. Examining the intellectual origins of



modern scholarly criticism of democracy in the Athens of this period, this volume shows how the politics of scholarly discourse have distorted modern views of Hellenistic Athens.

Sommario/riassunto

This book presents the XXII Congress of APDIO – IO 2022 which is the 22nd edition of the regular meeting of the Portuguese Association of Operational Research (APDIO). The APDIO regular meetings aim to gather Portuguese and international researchers, scholars and practitioners, as well as M.Sc. and Ph.D. students, working in the field of Operations Research to present and discuss their latest research works. The main theme of the XXII Congress of APDIO is OR in Turbulent Times: Adaptation and Resilience. Readers find interesting results and applications of Operational Research cutting-edge methods and techniques in the wide variety of the addressed problems. Of particular interest are the applications of, among others, linear, nonlinear and mixed-integer programing, multiobjective optimization, metaheuristics and hybrid heuristics, multicriteria decision analysis, data envelopment analysis, simulation, clustering techniques and decision support systems, in different areas such as, supply chain management, scheduling problems, production management, logistics, energy, telecommunications, finance and health.
