A major new economic history of the ancient Mediterranean world In
The Open Sea, J. G. Manning offers a major new history of economic
life in the Mediterranean world during the Iron Age, from
Phoenician trading down to the Hellenistic era and the beginning of
Rome's supremacy. Drawing on a wide range of ancient sources and
the latest social theory, Manning suggests that the search for an
illusory single ancient economy has obscured the diversity of the
Mediterranean world, including changes in political economies over
time and differences in cultural conceptions of property and money.
At the same time, this groundbreaking book shows how the region's
economies became increasingly interconnected during this period-and
why the origins of the modern economy extend far beyond Greece and
Rome.
