Produktbeschreibung

This book explores the intricate economic systems of the Roman Empire, delving into the political, social, and economic frameworks that enabled one of history's greatest empires to thrive for centuries. Through an examination of trade networks, agricultural practices, military logistics, and financial systems, the text highlights how Rome's vast empire facilitated the flow of goods, capital, and labor across diverse regions. Beginning with the origins of Roman economic organization, the book traces the evolution of economic thought, the role of infrastructure and public works, and the complex relationship between wealth and power in Roman society.

The narrative also explores the economic implications of Roman law, focusing on the influence of Roman legal concepts on medieval and modern economic systems. It examines how Roman practices, such as coinage, taxation, and the management of resources, laid the groundwork for later economic developments. The book further investigates the impact of Christianity on the Roman economy, particularly its reorganization of wealth, charity, and the state's role in economic life.
