Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book offers an extensive look into the history of economic thought in ancient Greece, a topic often overlooked in standard surveys of economic thought. The author examines the writings of major Greek philosophers such as Plato, Aristotle, and Xenophon, demonstrating how their ideas on economics reflected the realities of daily life in ancient Greece. The author argues against the popular notion that Greek philosophers dismissed commerce, providing evidence of their complex understanding of economics and their anticipation of modern theories on topics such as wealth distribution, the importance of labor, and the dangers of excessive wealth disparity. Ultimately, this book demonstrates the significance of ancient Greek thought on the development of modern economics, challenging the common assumption that modern economic thought began in the 18th century.
