...and Forgive Them Their Debts

Lending, Foreclosure and Redemption from Bronze Age Finance to the Jubilee Year

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

An epic journey through the economies of ancient civilizations, and how they managed debt versus social instability. Shocking historical truths about how debt played a central role in shaping (or destroying) ancient societies (viz: Rome), and that the Bible is preoccupied with debt, not sin, which has been disturbingly inverted in modern times.
