This is a concise survey of the economy of the Byzantine Empire

from the fourth century AD to the fall of Constantinople in 1453.

Organised chronologically, the book addresses key themes such as

demography, agriculture, manufacturing and the urban economy,

trade, monetary developments, and the role of the state and

ideology. It provides a comprehensive overview of the economy with

an emphasis on the economic actions of the state and the productive

role of the city and non-economic actors, such as landlords,

artisans and money-changers. The final chapter compares the

Byzantine economy with the economies of western Europe and

concludes that the Byzantine economy was one of the most successful

examples of a mixed economy in the pre-industrial world. This is

the only concise general history of the Byzantine economy and will

be essential reading for students of economic history, Byzantine

history and medieval history more generally.
