Abstract :The concept of ancient Greek state (polis, pl. poleis) is taken as a kind of an organic whole in which the individuals have close ties with and responsibilities for their society and state. Hence, in an ancient state of this kind, any situation related to the individuals could reflect its direct results in community affairs and public administration, if the continuity and the welfare of the state are to be ensured. In this study, \"education\" is considered as the main model to investigate this close intercourse between the individuals, society, and state and it is aimed to reveal the actual influence of citizens’ education on politics and vice versa in Classical Greece.Keywords : Ancient Greek city-state, citizen, education
