Finding consensus on well-being in education
Research on well-being and concern over the well-being of students and teachers has grown dramatically in recent years. Researchers and reformers in positive psychology and education, self-determination theory, social and emotional learning, liberal-democratic political and educational philosophy, and neo-Aristotelian theories of flourishing and character education have played formative and intersecting roles in what is now an international movem…
Stop making sense
Absent Archimedes – what
Reviel Netz offers a radically contingent counterfactual history in which the absence of Archimedes would have prevented early modern Europe's scientific revolution and perhaps the nineteenth-century industrial revolution too. I argue that we need to be more explicit about methods in counterfactual arguments. Techniques developed by economic historians and political scientists seem to point toward a more constrained range of possibilities, and al…

Seshat is a databank containing vast amounts of quantitative data buttressed by qualitative nuance for a large sample of historical and archaeological polities. The sample is global in scope and covers the period from the Neolithic Revolution to the Industrial Revolution. Seshat allows scholars to capture dynamic processes and to test theories about t…
Archaeology and Archaic Greek History
Turchin, Peter. 2016. Ultrasociety
Article Turchin, Peter. 2016. Ultrasociety: How 10,000 Years of War Made Humans the Greatest Cooperators on Earth. was published on October 1, 2017 in the journal Evolutionary Studies in Imaginative Culture (volume 1, issue 2)
What is Ancient History
Every society has told stories about ancient times, but contemporary ancient history was the product of two main developments. The first was the invention of writing, which made scholarly study of the past possible, and the second was the explosion of knowledge about the world from the eighteenth century onward. Europeans responded to this explosion by inventing two main versions of antiquity: the first, an evolutionary model, was global and went…
The Cambridge World History
From the fourth millennium BCE to the early second millennium CE the world became a world of cities. This volume explores this critical transformation, from the appearance of the earliest cities in Mesopotamia and Egypt to the rise of cities in Asia and the Mediterranean world, Africa, and the Americas. Through case studies and comparative accounts of key cities across the world, leading scholars chart the ways in which these cities grew as nodal…
The Measure of Civilization
Greek Multicity States
This chapter, which explores the history of multi-city states in ancient Greece during the archaic and classical periods, explains that leaders of small city-states were forced to attempt to establish multi-city states because of increasing competition for scarce resources in an age of expanding population and pressures from neighboring cities. It analyzes why these attempts failed, arguing that it is more fruitful to consider state formation as …
The Evolution of War
War and governance have co-evolved across the last 15,000 years, but much remains unclear about the process because historical narratives have not been integrated well into social-scientific analyses. Under the conditions of circumscription/caging that emerged in a few places after the ice age, war became productive, in the sense of producing larger, safer, richer societies. However, the larger states produced by war changed the environment aroun…
Archaeology and Greek slavery
INTRODUCTION What can archaeologists contribute to the study of Greek slavery? First, we need to know just what it is we are studying. According to Peter Garnsey (1996: 1), ‘A slave was property. The slave-owner's rights over his slave-property were total, covering the person as well as the labour of the slave. The slave was kinless, stripped of his or her old social identity in the process of capture, sale and deracination, and denied the capaci…
The Cambridge World History of Slavery
Volume 1 in the new Cambridge World History of Slavery surveys the history of slavery in the ancient Mediterranean world. Although chapters are devoted to the ancient Near East and the Jews, its principal concern is with the societies of ancient Greece and Rome. These are often considered as the first examples in world history of genuine slave societies because of the widespread prevalence of chattel slavery, which is argued to have been a cultur…
The Economic Sociology of the Ancient Mediterranean World
The Eighth‐Century Revolution
This chapter contains sections titled: Introduction Background: The Dark Age Economics Social Structures Culture Eighth-century Greece in Comparative Perspective Conclusion
Early Iron Age Greece
This chapter reviews the economic history of Early Iron Age (EIA) Greece. First, it summarizes the evidence, and quantifies some aspects of EIA economic performance. Next, the chapter suggests that 1200-1000 BC saw economic collapse in Aegean Greece; 1000-800 BC saw stagnation; and that recovery began in the eighth century. However, it also argues that the most important economic take-off only came later, around 550-500 BC. The chapter discusses …
The Cambridge Economic History of the Greco-Roman World
In this, the first comprehensive one-volume survey of the economies of classical antiquity, twenty-eight chapters summarise the current state of scholarship in their specialised fields and sketch new directions for research. The approach taken is both thematic, with chapters on the underlying determinants of economic performance, and chronological, with coverage of the whole of the Greek and Roman worlds extending from the Aegean Bronze Age to La…
The growth of “financial services” provided by Homeless International
For nearly 20 years, Homeless International has supported international partner organizations that work with slum communities to reduce poverty and improve living conditions. Its support has increasingly focused on partner organizations that are members of the Shack/Slum Dwellers International (SDI) network. The support has changed over time in response to the changing demands, but has increasingly been in the form of what Homeless International …
Remaining invisible
In calling their collection of essays Becoming Visible, Bridenthal and Koonz were making a point about the politics of historiography. The only reason that the history of women had seemed invisible was that historians had not thought it worth looking for. Raboteau suggested much the same about the cultural history of American slaves: “We should speak of the ‘invisibility’ of slave religion with irony: it is the neglect of slave sources by histori…

Mediterraneanization
Since the 1980s historians and archaeologists have shifted from models emphasizing the stability of bounded cultures to ones emphasizing fluidity and connectedness. It is argued here that this is a response to globalization. Criticizing current connectedness models for their unfocused questions and methods, the argument emphasizes processes of Mediterraneanization over timeless Mediterraneanism, the need for more precise analytical categories, an…

The Archaeology of Ancestors
Since the mid-1980s, debates between competing schools of archaeological interpretation have become more theoretical and abstruse, moving away from confrontations over specific methods of analyzing our data. This article reopens arguments over one of the more controversial propositions of the New Archaeology - Saxe's claim that the emergence of formal cemeteries corresponds to the appearance of agnatic lineages monopolizing vital resources throug…

Classical Archaeology of Greece
Archaeologists do not discover the past but take the fragmentary remains which they recover and make something of them. Archaeology is a process of detection and supposition; this is what makes it so fascinating. However, the interpretations of archaeologists differ and change over time. They depend upon the amount of evidence available, the ideas and preconceptions of the archaeologist and their interests and aims. Michael Shanks's enlivening wo…

Negotiated Peripherality in Iron Age Greece
Most archaeologists argue that the Aegean was cut off from the Near East in the tenth century B.C., but a new position is winning favor, seeing Iron Age Greece as a periphery to a Lcvantinc core. In this paper, I argue for a more complex model of negotiated peripherality. I try to understand how Greeks made sense of the East. For this, variations in local leadership were crucial Political changes in the Near East c. 1050 B.C. reduced contacts, an…

Tomb cult and the 'Greek renaissance
Greek society was changing rapidly in the 8th century BC. The archaeological record reveals population growth, increasing political complexity, artistic experiments and a strong interest in the past. Because these processes resemble those at work in early modern Italy, the period has often been referred to as the 'Greek renaissance' (e.g. Ure 1922; Hägg 1983a; cf. Burke 1986). This paper is about the glorification of the past in the 8th century, …

Foreign Policy Issues in Japan's 1958 Elections
THE GENERAL ELECTIONS for the Lower House of the Diet, which were held in May I958, provide useful material for a study of Japanese attitudes to foreign policy and to the related questions of rearmament and war. There have been no detailed public opinion polls in these fields for a considerable time and an examination of election issues offers one of the few available statistical methods (albeit a very indirect and inexact one) for judging what J…

Significance of the Military in Post-War Japan
Military elements in Japan reached their all-time nadir in August I945. For some years thereafter they continued in the doldrums, but, beginning in ig5o, the new rearmament policy of the Occupation and the general Reverse Course policy in Japan produced a climate that encouraged some of the former professional military to engage once more in organized activity. Not only could many of them join the new armed forces, but they were able to participa…

Policeman and Student in Japanese Politics
THE POLICEMEN were lined up by the hundreds along the drizzly, windswept Tokyo avenue. looked remarkably efficient in their dark blue uniforms, their white gloves and black leather boots; each man had a truncheon and a revolver tucked neatly by his belt. One of them was busily operating a walky-talky radio. Crowds of people had stopped by the side of the road and were silently observing the scene. I went up to a small, neatly-dressed man wearing …

The Life of an Amorous Man
First published in 1682, The Life of an Amorous depicts the pursuits and follies of the most glorious age of Japan, when wealthy commoners could rise above the warrior caste and indulge in the free and easy life of Japan's pleasure houses. The hero, Yonosuke, whose name means Man of the World, is followed from his precocious childhood to the close of his amatory career. His erotic escapades are chronicled, always with frankness and often with pat…
