This integrated collection of new and newly revised essays by
archaeologist Timothy Earle represents both a personal journey and
a growing synthesis of how political economies emerged in human
societies. Drawing in detail on the cases of chiefdoms in Hawaii,
the Andes, and Denmark, "Bronze Age Economics" documents how
intensification of economies, surplus mobilization, and controlled
distribution of both staple and prestige goods fundamentally drove
the political evolutionary processes that prefigured states.
Representing as it does the trajectory of Earle's lifework, this
book fairly encapsulates the history of processual archaeology and
social evolutionary theory over the past quarter century.
