In the Greek cities of the Roman Empire, the spread of Roman citizenship introduced a new way of naming oneself, a new right, a new form of social distinction. In the 2nd century, after several decades of development of Roman citizenship but before the choice of the emperor Caracalla to grant it to all the free inhabitants of the empire, the cities experienced a unique situation: local citizenships, the foundation of daily political activity, coexisted with imperial, universal citizenship. The studies collected in this work explore the consequences of such a situation, unprecedented in the ancient world, and question the impact of Roman citizenship on Greek societies. Collection Scripta antiqua (139).
