Abstract

The theses of Polanyi on the forms of integration in pre-capitalist societies, reciprocity and redistribution, continue to be subject of debates in the historiography on the economies and societies of the ancient world. This study aims to investigate the reciprocity before and after the advent of the Egyptian State, seeking to realize its permanence and changes in both the domestic sphere as well as the public sector, considering the articulation of kinship relations with the state logic and the nature of the Egyptian State.
