Summary
Xenophon: Economy
Xenophon's writing "Economy" shows that the technique of property management depends both on the skill of managing the policy and on the skill of self-management. For Greek thinkers like him, the economy is not only conditioned by political circumstances and difficulties, but also by the character, that is, the virtues and flaws of those who manage their estates. This knowledge has a higher goal than profit - it should bring order and order to the household, and consequently harmony among its members.
