"Technical progress, economic growth, productivity, even efficiency have not been significant goals since the beginning of time," declares M. I. Finley in his classic work. The states of the ancient Mediterranean world had no recognizable real-property market, never fought a commercially inspired war, witnessed no drive to capital formation, and assigned the management of many substantial enterprises to slaves and ex-slaves. In short, to study the economies of the ancient world, one must begin by discarding many premises that seemed self-evident before Finley showed that they were useless or misleading. Available again, with a new foreword by Ian Morris, these sagacious, fertile, and occasionally combative essays are just as electrifying today as when Finley first wrote them.
重讀,總之就是對ancient economy持primitive觀點的,認為古希臘羅馬無現代“經濟“的概念,就算有commercial activities, 包括會涉及interest的,也不是為瞭和現在一樣投資盈利更幾乎不受保護(除upper class),還不被當時的ethos接受……等等。Slavery一章中和labour的關係之前沒重視,這次竟然覺得格外有意思。其他觀點在後來的各種文獻中都多有提及,或反駁或反駁……不一一贅述瞭。
評分無論贊同與否,今日的古代經濟史研究事實上處於後芬利時代。
評分補標。Primitive派的代錶,啓huo迪hai瞭一代人、開啓瞭無數爭論的作品。貨幣觀念局限於鑄幣體係,商業受倫理、社群、政治的影響和拘束沒有現代經濟的發展。今天看來,雖然大多數論述是學術史意義高於學術意義瞭,但想要進入古代經濟史宏觀的討論,本書仍是必讀之作。
評分無論贊同與否,今日的古代經濟史研究事實上處於後芬利時代。
