Summary Employs modern international relations theory to place Roman militarism and expansion of power within the broader Mediterranean context of interstate anarchy. This study challenges claims that Rome was an exceptionally warlike and aggressive state, by arguing that intense militarism and aggressiveness were common among all Mediterranean polities.
