The thirteen papers collected in "Interdependency of Institutions and
Private Entrepreneurs" present the initial efforts to investigate the
archival documentation dealing with the connections between the
Mesopotamian institutions and the private entrepreneurs, in the broadest
possible sense of the word. The institutions were the palace, which
represented the royal administration, and the temples, whose economies
were ultimately controlled by this royal administration. The private
entrepreneurs were either individuals outside the institutions, who, for
example, leased a certain type of institutional property, or persons
inside the institutions, who provided the commodities needed for the
cult.
