Description: "Foundations of Corporate Empire sketches the history of international business from the emergence of ancient Assyria around 2000 BC through the Phoenician, Carthaginian and Grecian periods up to the time of the Roman Imperium under Augustus, and then on the medieval and modern eras ending with today's post-modern times." "The history of these civilizations has developed around different economic models, which have regularly re-emerged across time and are still present today." "Foundations of Corporate Empire looks at our past economic foundations to better understand where we are today and where we should be tomorrow."--Jacket.
