Why Markets? The Provisioning of Classical Greek Military Forces on the Move through Friendly, Allied, and Neutral Territory
Classical Greek armies and navies moving through the territory of friendly, allied, and neutral city-states provisioned themselves through markets organized and controlled by those city-states. No scholar has ever explained why this was so. By placing this practice within a comparative framework, this article demonstrates that the protocol of the provision of markets by poleis to passing armies developed in the way it did in the late Archaic and …
Sailors, Soldiers, and Market Exchanges in the Classical Greek World: The Constraints on Opportunism
Modern discussions of the markets in which classical Greek military forces participated commonly state that traders regularly exploited sailors and soldiers in these markets. This article demonstrates that the ancient texts usually cited in support of this view have been misinterpreted by modern scholars and do not represent usual practices. Rather, the markets in which Greek sailors and soldiers took part possessed an efficient and stable instit…
Freestanding Emergency Departments Are Associated With Higher Medicare Costs: A Longitudinal Panel Data Analysis
The number of freestanding emergency departments (FSEDs) is growing rapidly in the United States. Proponents of FSEDs cite potential benefits of FSEDs including lower waiting time and reduced travel distance for needed emergency care. Others have suggested that increased access to emergency care may lead to an increase in the use of emergency departments for lower acuity patients, resulting in higher overall health care expenditures. We examined …
The Agoranomoi at Cotyora (Xen. An. 5.7.21–9): Cerasuntians or Cyreans
In the late spring of 400 b.c.e. , when the Ten Thousand were encamped outside the city of Cotyora, Xenophon addressed the soldiers gathered in assembly in order to defend himself against accusations that he was planning to lead them on a colonizing expedition to the land of the Phasis river. Having demonstrated that he was not misleading the soldiers (that is, that his true intentions were not to lead them to the Phasis) by proving that he could…
Private Traders and the Food Supply of Classical Greek Armies
Modern discussions of the private traders who accompanied Classical Greek armies on overland campaigns have considered these traders to have been important sources of food for Greek armies on the march. A careful reading of the passages mentioning private traders following Classical Greek land campaigns into and in hostile territory demonstrates, however, that they never played a structurally important role in the provisioning of these campaigns.…
Participatory engineering for recovery in post-earthquake Haiti
Participatory engineering has been called for after major catastrophes, yet is often bypassed due to countervailing implementation of ‘quick fixes’. While immediate expert-driven solutions may be attractive, in the long-term they may be ineffective and inconsistent with the goals and capacities of local stakeholders. This article discusses the findings of National Science Foundation research by a team of three engineers and one social scientist w…
