In a world that is undergoing processes of globalization, regions rather than national units are becoming important and relevant frames of reference. In recent years the regional concept of the "Mediterranean" has emerged both as a program for cultural networking as well as a conceptual tool for interpreting society and history. In this book, prominent historians apply Mediterranean paradigms to Classical Mediterranean Antiquity (Greece and Rome), allowing for a new approach to the ancient world and enhancing antiquity's relevance to the understanding of other historical periods as well as our contemporary world. This book was previously published as a special issue of the journal "Mediterranean Historical Review."
