    • Zöllner und Sünder

      Unternehmer im Dienst der römischen Republik

      Das Buch untersucht die römischen "publicani", die während der Republik als Zöllner und Sünder bekannt waren. Es beleuchtet, wie private Gesellschaften unter staatlicher Kontrolle essentielle Dienstleistungen wie Steuereinnahme und Heeresausrüstung übernahmen. Trotz ihrer Ausbeutung der Provinzen war das System lange effizient, bis es nach den Bürgerkriegen an Bedeutung verlor.
