The Impact of Globalization in the Roman Empire, 200bc—ad100
使用一般均衡模型分析罗马帝国扩张期间意大利对商品和要素市场一体化的反应,验证罗马人是理性经济行为者且其经济是整合的市场体系。
The article employs a general equilibrium model to describe Italy's response to commodity and factor market integration during the expansion of the Roman Empire. This novel approach constructs a comprehensive story of the Italian economy that corroborates established developments and sheds light on controversial and unanswered questions. The success of the model supports arguments that Romans were rational economic actors and that the Roman economy was a well-integrated market system.
