“…The term for the regime, where archē (the norm) belongs to the people, is not dēmokratia, but isonomy (Raaflaub et al, 2007). The concept isonomy appears to be equality under the law (Bitros & Kyriazis, 2015) but, according to Raaflaub et al (2007) -the supplicants, from the tragedy of Aeschylus -uniting the terms dēmos and kratein it formulates what we know today as democracy. This model, where all decisions were made in the popular assembly, and in which citizens participated in the political life of the polis, continued to evolve over time, adopting various meanings according to the temporal context.…”

Globalisation is an increasingly broad, dynamic and complex phenomenon. Given the previous context and in an attempt to reduce its complexity, the underlying objective of this article is to contribute to a broader and more comprehensive discussion on globalisation in the light of the theme, democracy. We used a qualitative, exploratory and descriptive methodology, which focused on a theoretical analysis through a systematic literature review. The systematic review made it possible to synthesize the existing literature in order to provide a holistic view of the phenomenon. Therefore, our intention is to present a theoretical framework on the dimensions that contain the essence of globalisation in a postmodern version of democracy. The results suggest that there are no unambiguous metrics to measure the impact of globalisation. In that regard, it is essential to recognise globalisation as an opportunity and not as a threat, being aware of the underlying inequalities and the risks that they can pose to democratic states. Future studies can analyse the impact of the dimensions identified in this article and examine the differences within different countries and cultural contexts. The identification of opportunities that globalisation creates, as well as ways to mitigate possible inequalities and risks, can be useful in looking for new scientific and academic ventures.
