In this, the first comprehensive one-volume survey of the economies
of classical antiquity, twenty-eight chapters summarise the current
state of scholarship in their specialised fields and sketch new
directions for research. The approach taken is both thematic, with
chapters on the underlying determinants of economic performance,
and chronological, with coverage of the whole of the Greek and
Roman worlds extending from the Aegean Bronze Age to Late
Antiquity. The contributors move beyond the substantivist-formalist
debates that dominated twentieth-century scholarship and display a
new interest in economic growth in antiquity. New methods for
measuring economic development are explored, often combining
textual and archaeological data that have previously been treated
separately. Fully accessible to non-specialist, the volume
represents a major advance in our understanding of the economic
expansion that made the civilisation of the classical Mediterranean
world possible.
