Metropolis and Hinterland

- The City of Rome and the Italian Economy, 200 BC-AD 200

Bag om Metropolis and Hinterland

This book studies the growth of the city of Rome and the effects of its demands for food and migrants on the economy of Italy. It questions the idea that all great cities were parasites on the societies that supported them, and reappraises not only the traditional view of Rome as a consumer city but also the history of Italy in the late Republic and early Principate.
