Des publicains et des sociétés vectigalium [French]

By Alphonse Ledru

Des publicains et des soci t s vectigalium by Alphonse Ledru delves into the intricate world of Roman publicans and their role in the 'societates vectigalium, ' the tax-farming companies of the Roman Republic and early Empire. This meticulously researched study, originally published in 1875, examines the financial structures, legal frameworks, and social implications of these institutions. Ledru provides a detailed analysis of how these private entities operated, their influence on Roman governance, and their impact on the broader economy.

Exploring the methods of tax collection, the contracts between the state and the publicani, and the legal recourse available to both parties, Ledru offers a nuanced understanding of Roman fiscal administration. This book is essential reading for scholars and enthusiasts interested in Roman history, ancient law, and the history of economic systems. It sheds light on a crucial aspect of Roman society and offers valuable insights into the complexities of ancient finance.
