As the focus moves away from the Italian Peninsula...

Everyday Anarchism081. Running Rome: 60 Million Subjects, Zero Middle Managers -- James Corke-Webster and Lisa EberleIn this episode, following up on my conversation about Byzantium with Anthony Kaldellis and leading to my conversation about democratic Athens with Clif Mark, I talk to James Corke-Webster and Lisa Eberle about their work on Roman governance.

You can also hear why so many Roman buildings became ruins before they...
