Private associations abounded in the ancient Greek world and
beyond, and this volume provides the first large-scale study of the
strategies of governance which they employed. Emphasis is placed on
the values fostered by the regulations of associations, the
complexities of the private-public divide (and that divide's impact
on polis institutions) and the dynamics of regional and global
networks and group identity. The attested links between rules and
religious sanctions also illuminate the relationship between legal
history and religion. Moreover, possible links between ancient
associations and the early Christian churches will prove
particularly valuable for scholars of the New Testament. The book
concludes by using the regulations of associations to explore a
novel and revealing aspect of the interaction between the
Mediterranean world, India and China.
