The Twentieth-Century Origins of the Medieval Lex Mercatoria Thesis
This article reappraises the early intellectual formation of the medieval “lex mercatoria” thesis: the idea that the international merchants of medieval Europe (or perhaps beyond) enjoyed a universal, autonomous, and customary body of commercial law created and administered by themselves. The debate over its existence, raging for at least 120 years, shows no signs of slowing, in part because the idea is of undoubted usefulness to both proponents …
Avanias, Every Waking Hour’
In the first decades of this century, historians emphasised cross-cultural commerce in the Mediterranean to refute both the ‘clash of civilisations’ account of Islamic–Christian relations and an equally binary Saidean reading of the early modern past. While such refutations may be sound, the connection between the ‘nuts and bolts of cross-cultural trade’ and the ‘flourishing (or not) of mutual cultural understanding’ often implicit therein remain…
Mapping trade, risk and extreme weather in the first globalization
This research note introduces the award-winning AveTransRisk database, the result of an extensive project capturing data on early modern maritime trade, specifically in the Mediterranean region. It focuses on the concept of General Average, where shipmasters voluntarily sacrificed cargo to save their vessels from peril. General Average procedures, including accident reports and damage calculations, provide valuable information for economic and ma…
The Technical Challenges of Measuring Maritime Trade in the Early Modern Mediterranean
The AveTransRisk database was recently published by the ERC project “Average-Transaction Costs and Risk Management during the First Globalization (Sixteenth-Eighteenth Century)”. It captures data on early modern maritime trade thanks to the use of an understudied source: General Average procedures. The database contains information on thousands of cases, aiming to become the repository for such records. The article discusses the particularities o…
General Average, Human Jettison, and the Status of Slaves in Early Modern Europe
This article proposes a transition in Western European thinking on slavery by examining the legality of slave jettison and its indemnification in the seventeenth-century Christian Mediterranean and comparing this with the late eighteenth-century Atlantic. Under the law of general average (GA), a shipmaster may legally sacrifice cargo or parts of a vessel to save a maritime venture from peril. GA then mandates that the costs of this sacrifice be s…
