For the Greeks, it represented the equality between the citizens (men), the right to participate in the Polis and the exercise (the) of democracy; for moderns it was connected to the right to life, freedom, property and the universal suffrage (civil and political rights); in the developed societies of the 20th century, the conquest cycle got completed with the social rights.
