The Cost of Hegemony
The article investigates the influence of institutional frameworks on spatial development patterns in the preindustrial world, exploring how the degree of urban concentration may determine whether societies experienced urbanization ‘with’ or ‘without’ growth. We hypothesize that the emergence of centralized/extractive institutions in the capital city, which tend to siphon resources from hinterland cities, results in artificially inflated urbaniza…
The ‘Palladium of prosperity
This article investigates the multifaceted lobbying activities carried out by the Chamber of Commerce of Marseilles (CoC) from the French Revolution to the Restoration periods (ca. 1789-1817). Part of historical literature recognises this crucial period as the birth of modern-day lobbyism. I will examine the long and heated political debates regarding the free port of Marseilles, definitively abolished in 1817, through the strategies employed by …
Whatever the cost
This work analyses the activities of Genoese merchant communities in the grain trade in western Mediterranean markets. Our goal is to shed light on their ability to integrate into foreign lands, taking advantage of their privileged position within the Spanish Crown. Our analysis is focussed on two case studies, strictly connected from a theoretical point of view: Sicily and Tabarka. Both Genoese minorities living on these two islands used the por…
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…
Risky Business
The Risky Business database is a newly created database that contains information regarding insurance contracts from the fifteenth to the nineteenth century from markets in Italy, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. The database, which is accessible to everyone, is populated with data from existing data sets as well as data collected from primary sources. It includes information on the routes for which insurance could be bought, the premium p…
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…
