Byzantine Jewry in the Mediterranean Economy
Holo, Joshua (Hebrew Union College - Jewish Institute of Religion, California)
Joshua Holo's Byzantine-Jewish economic history challenges two prevailing historical claims. Byzantine Jews, leveraging exclusive trade structures to advance their integration into Byzantine markets, belie the assumption of segregation and integration as competing forces. Moreover, this mercantile success also contradicts the claim of Jewish economic decline during the Commercial Revolution.
