title = "After the Empire: Judicial Review and Interstate Relations in the Age of Demosthenes 354-22 BCE",
abstract = "This chapter explores the legal arguments and ideas in the trial against the honorary decree for Charidemus as a case study of Athenian interstate relations in the fourth century bce. The decree was challenged in court through a procedure of judicial review (graphē paranomon). The chapter sets the discussion of the legal arguments against its institutional background. It then analysed the juridical interpretation of the Athenian statutes at the trial, and their wider implication for the use of public honours to foster Athenian hegemonic ambitions in the aftermath of the Social War.",
