Fue el primer hecho de este tipo que se dio en Constantinopla, creando una situación de inestabilidad que marcaría todo el siglo VII. Este estudio pone el acento en el contexto social y económico en el que se produjo, enclavándolo en las tensiones existentes entre el estamento aristocrático y el resto de la población romana. La extrema crueldad con la que se produjo la deposición de Mauricio, y que también afectó a su familia, sería la prueba de que se trató de una venganza social.]]></p></abstract>

It was the first event of its kind that occurred in Constantinople, creating a situation of instability that would mark the entire 7th century. This study places the accent on the social and economic context in which it occurred, anchoring it in the existing tensions between the aristocratic establishment and the rest of the Roman population.
