'Social Conflict in the Age of Justinian' explores a range of often violent conflicts across the whole empire - on the land, in religion, and in sport - during this pivotal period in European history. Drawing on both sociology and social psychology, and on his experience as a senior British Civil Servant dealing with violent political conflicts in Northern Ireland and elsewhere, Bell shows that such conflicts were a basic feature of the overwhelmingly agricultural political economy of the empire. These conflicts were reflected at the ideological level and lead to intense persecution of intellectuals and Pagans as an ever more robust Christian ideological hegemony was established. 651 0 $a Byzantine Empire $x History $y Justinian I, 527-565. 600 0 $a Justinian $b I, $c Emperor of the East, $d 483?-565. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191217031636.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5CCE71768E3311E3B5D817AEDAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
