Abstract: | "This Introduction considers some significant methodological issues. Because the Roman Empire encompassed innumerable local groupings --- municipalities, kingdoms, provinces, villages --- distributed over a vast area and tenaciously preserving separate societal values, institutions and languages, the sense of the very word "Roman" must be examined, a term that "paradoxically is rarely defined or given meaning" (Revell). Despite the dearth of quantitative evidence in and for classical antiquity, this Introduction seeks to show how methodologies other than statistical --- Behavioral Economics, some aspects of Neo-Classical Economics and (most importantly) New Institutional Economics --- can be utilized, in lieu of mathematical approaches, to elucidate Roman Inequality. Because this book makes significant use of evidence from Roman Law, a number of juridical issues must be confronted: the extent to which Roman law reflects actual life; whether surviving "cases" reflect true disputes or fictitious generalizing hypotheses of academic origin; the influence of anachronism and interpolation in Roman law materials; the interplay between Roman law and indigenous law"-- |
| In the first and second centuries CE a small elite of affluent slaves and wealthy free persons prospered in Rome amidst a mass of impoverished free inhabitants and impecunious enslaved people. Roman Inequality reconstructs the role that slaves and women played in this economy |
