Download or read book Governmental Intervention in Foreign Trade in Archaic and Classical Greece written by Errietta M. A. Bissa and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trade was a necessity in the ancient Greek world, yet the prevalent scholarly view is that Greek states intervened in foreign trade only rarely and sporadically. This book studies four necessary commodities, gold, silver, ship-building timber and grain, from production through export to import. Through the re-evaluation of known evidence and the presentation of new avenues of research, the book shows that Greek and non-Greek governments in the archaic and classical periods intervened and involved themselves greatly in foreign trade. The book offers the student of the Greek economy a fresh perspective on state intervention in trade and the ways in which intervention worked in the Greek world.

Download or read book The Business Life of Ancient Athens written by George Miller Calhoun and published by New York : Cooper Square Publishers. This book was released on 1968 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of little sketches is not in any sense a scientific investigation into the economic and industrial history of Athens. It is merely an attempt to give the general reader who would learn something of this side of ancient Greek life an intelligible account of the way in which business and finance were carried on in Athens in the 4th century before Christ. It emphasizes the personal and ethical aspects of the subject, rather than technical processes or purely economic data. The author endeavored to learn and illustrate to the reader what sort of men controlled trade and finance in these times and places, what were their aims and ideals, their standards of honesty, and their methods of doing business.

Download or read book Exchange in Ancient Greece written by Sitta von Reden and published by Bloomsbury Academic. This book was released on 1995 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Exchange lies at the heart of the economic processes. It is also, as Aristotle maintained, an essential condition for political order. The separation of economic exchange from its social and political implications, commonplace in modern economic theory, would have been meaningless in Ancient Greece." "This book is the first sustained attempt to describe the consequences of a cast of thought in which the exchange of goods and the payment of money were viewed as social and political practices. The distinction between reciprocity and redistribution on the one hand and market exchange on the other is abandoned in order to explore the social symbolism of exchange across the boundary between politics and economics. Dr von Reden shows how economically motivated exchange emerged as morally inappropriate behaviour against a cultural background in which the political community was seen as a sacred order similar to that of the family. Drawing on literary and archaeological evidence, including vase painting and the iconography of coinage, she emphasises the overriding importance of the Greek city-state in shaping a notion of commerce opposed to other forms of exchange."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
