English term or phrase: resident innovators

The Greeks of this period developed, perhaps, the most important innovations in governance—citizen participation in government, laying the foundations for democracy. In addition, in 4th century BC, Athenians established jury courts overseen by lay judges, and equality before the law. Cities in Greece prospered from extensive trade, the expanding use of coins, and the spread of Greek cultural ideas generated by their resident innovators.

Vicky Papaprodromou: Θα προτιμούσα να πούμε «ντόπιοι νεωτεριστές» ή κάτι τέτοιο. Ο innovator δεν είναι απαραίτητα μεταρρυθμιστής, αλλά σίγουρα εισάγει καινοτόμες ιδέες.
