Abstract

Part of a resurgence in the comparative study of ancient societies, this book presents a variety of methods and approaches to comparative analysis through the examination of wide-ranging case studies. Each chapter is a comparative study, and the diverse topics and regions covered in the book contribute to the growing understanding of variation and change in ancient complex societies. The authors explore themes ranging from urbanization and settlement patterns, to the political strategies of kings and chiefs, to the economic choices of individuals and households. The case studies cover an array of geographical settings, from the Andes to Southeast Asia. The authors are leading archaeologists whose research on early empires, states, and chiefdoms is at the cutting edge of scientific archaeology.

Abstract

This book examines the formation of the Chinese empire through its reorganization and reinterpretation of its basic spatial units: the human body, the household, the city, the region, and the world. The central theme of the book is the way all these forms of ordered space were reshaped by the project of unification and how, at the same time, that unification was constrained and limited by the necessary survival of the units on which it was based. Consequently, as Mark Edward Lewis shows, each level of spatial organization could achieve order and meaning only within an encompassing, superior whole: the body within the household, the household within the lineage and state, the city within the region, and the region within the world empire, while each level still contained within itself the smaller units from which it was formed. The unity that was the empire's highest goal avoided collapse back into the original chaos of nondistinction only by preserving within itself the very divisions on the basis of family or region that it claimed to transcend.

Abstract

Sons and Descendants represents the first comprehensive study of Babylonian family names. Drawing primarily on evidence from legal documents from the early Neo-Babylonian period (747-626 B.C.), the book examines the presence of large, named kin groups at the major Babylonia cities, considering their origins and the important roles their members played as local elites in city governance and temple administration. The period of Neo-Assyrian ascendance over Babylonia marks the first for which there is adequate textual material to allow for a study of these groups, but their continued presence and prominence in Babylonia under the native Neo-Babylonian dynasty and the Persian Empire means that this work is an important contribution to Assyriological understanding of Neo-Babylonian society.

Abstract

Dans tout État, les minorités peuvent être perçues comme une menace pour l'unité nationale. Les questions posées par l'existence de minorités sont d'autant plus complexes que différents types de minorités ont émergé au cours de l'histoire, et ont émis des revendications diverses. Tous les États européens ont été confrontés à la question des minorités au cours de leur histoire, et le sont encore aujourd'hui. C'est pourquoi ce colloque organisé par l'Académie royale de Belgique sur les minorités prend pour champ d'étude le continent européen. Afin de cerner une problématique encore plus précise, le colloque se penche sur les catégories de minorités qui, d'hier à aujourd'hui, ont été perçues comme des défis pour l'intégrité territoriale ou la cohésion politique des États. Au cours de trois parties successives, les thèmes suivants sont examinés : l'émergence historique des différents types de minorités en jeu, les principaux courants de pensée qui structurent en Europe le débat sur les minorités, et enfin les réponses apportées à cette question par divers États européens ou institutions internationales.
