Meer over het boek
The book delves into the complex role of trade in classical antiquity, examining its dual nature as both a vital component of Mediterranean economies and a source of tension within social hierarchies. It highlights how trade fueled the growth of Athenian and Roman power while being viewed with suspicion by elites who feared its impact on social order. Additionally, the text connects ancient trade to broader themes of politics, morality, and societal structure, drawing parallels to modern debates on trade's role in poverty alleviation versus exploitation.
