This volume investigates how the intersection of Roman legal institutions and economic incentives shaped the development of markets, property rights, and dispute resolution in the ancient world. Editors Dennis P. Kehoe and Giuseppe Dari-Mattiacci assemble a multidisciplinary team of legal scholars and economists to analyze how Roman law functioned as a framework for economic activity. The collection argues that Roman legal structures were not merely abstract rules but functional mechanisms that facilitated trade, credit, and social order within the Roman Imperial system.
