Opis

This text deploys a range of methodological approaches and theoretical perspectives to examine the ancient economy in a truly interdisciplinary light. The central focus is on archaic and classical Greece, however many chapters include comparative perspectives from other areas and periods of the ancient and modern world. Topics covered include slavery and exploitation, land and access to resources, labour and new insights and approaches to understanding the ancient economy since Finley's The Ancient Economy. The book offers an international spectrum of views from diverse and dynamic researchers to provide an analysis of economics and the economy in ancient Greece.
