<p>How did people climb the social ladder in the Byzantine empire? Did Byzantium have guilds? What did horse-racing fan clubs in the hippodrome have in common with other social organizations? What causes and what religious and civic motivations united urban dwellers? </p><p>For too long, Byzantium has been seen as an atomized society dominated by the imperial court in Constantinople. <i>Power and People</i> breaks new ground in highlighting the existence of vertical connections articulated through collective agency. Focusing on "middling" people--urban professionals, prosperous householders and farmers, and monastics--living in Constantinople, Thessaloniki, and elsewhere, these eight contributions present new materials and fresh approaches to the strategies of collective self-empowerment.</p>
