Abstract

This chapter focuses on the articulation of the empire as a political form in the transition from the late Hellenistic world, when Rome sought to bind the world together via networks of bilateral and multilateral alliances, to the end of the Republic, when the world had been âprovincializedâ: select city-states were instrumentalized as nodal points for the transmission of metropolitan power, while other communities were effectively demoted and denominated villages in Roman public law (and hence deprived of both private law and fiscal autonomy). Whatever the violence of these processes, they are visible to us and were articulated to contemporaries in public law instruments.
