Economics

by Aristotle

This book is a treatise on Athenian economics and finance. Although its title is attached to the works of Aristotle, many scholars suggest that it was written after Aristotle's lifetime by one of his pupils. The book offers a detailed examination of the ways in which ancient Greek states increased revenue to fund their activities. It analyzes various methods such as debt, currency management, tariffs, taxes, fines, violence, and even sacrilege. The text is an invaluable resource for understanding how the ancient Greek economy and government operated.
