秉承修正羅馬史學觀點,realist theory的應用,削足適履,車軲轆話偏多。羅馬被動涉入希臘及東地中海尚可一論,之前羅馬演進之曆史也是被動應對,這算怎麼迴事?livy記述多有美化羅馬對外作戰理由之嫌,豈可一味為羅馬擴張洗地。我倒是很期望能讀到Gruen的大作《The Hellenistic World and the Coming of Rome》,粗觀其目錄,遠勝此書
評分在飛機上讀完瞭最後一章,而作者最大的貢獻在於提醒我們地中海世界普遍的anarchy以及羅馬戰敗的數量其實不少於戰勝的數量,提醒我們在他們在戰勝之前並不知道自己比然會勝利,提醒我們在這樣一個世界militaristic是普遍的,少給一星的原因是重復的話太多瞭。
評分和許田波的書對看會比較有趣

This ground-breaking study is the first to employ modern international relations theory to place Roman militarism and expansion of power within the broader Mediterranean context of interstate anarchy. Arthur M. Eckstein challenges claims that Rome was an exceptionally warlike and aggressive state - not merely in modern but in ancient terms - by arguing that intense militarism and aggressiveness were common among all Mediterranean polities from ca 750 B.C. onwards. In his wide-ranging and masterful narrative, Eckstein explains that international politics in the ancient Mediterranean world was, in political science terms, a multipolar anarchy: international law was minimal, and states struggled desperately for power and survival by means of warfare. Eventually, one state, the Republic of Rome, managed to create predominance and a sort of peace. Rome was certainly a militarized and aggressive state, but it was successful not because it was exceptional in its ruthlessness, Eckstein convincingly argues; rather, it was successful because of its exceptional ability to manage a large network of foreign allies, and to assimilate numerous foreigners within the polity itself. This book shows how these characteristics, in turn, gave Rome incomparably large resources for the grim struggle of states fostered by the Mediterranean anarchy - and hence they were key to Rome's unprecedented success.
