Описание: In this study, the appearance and location of shops in Amsterdam during the early modern period is linked to major changes in the urban economy, the size and socio-spatial distribution of its population, and the structure of the urban grid. Not only is there ample attention for the spatial distribution of shops across the urban landscape, but for the first time it is also accurately charted what the exterior and interior of Amsterdam shops looked like and how they changed in the course of the centuries. Partly as a result of this, it has proved possible to give an impression of the ways in which retailers and customers interacted. The Dutch language edition of this book is available from Uitgeverij Verloren (2013): Het winkellandschap van Amsterdam, ISBN: 978 90 8704 373 5.

Описание: In the modernWestern world, we tend to be insured by the state or for-profit insurers. Wehave privileged this system over mutual or micro-insurance, whose long and richhistory we tend to forget. Yet, mutual and micro-insurance is becomingincreasingly important, both in the Western and in the non-Western world andbears re-examination.This book tracesthe track record of mutual insurance from 1550 to the present, examiningprovisions for burial, sickness, unemployment, old age, and widowhood. Theauthor seeks to address such topics as the type of risks micro-insurancecovered between 1550 and 2015; how it was organized throughout its history; whoprovided the coverage; and how contributions, benefit levels, and conditionshave changed.Importantly, theauthor explores why this system has worked through, and endured, the test oftime. Mutual insurance can, for instance, overcome classic insurance problemssuch as adverse selection and moral hazards. The author demonstrates that thestudy of the position micro-insurance historically assumed in mixed economiesof welfare presents interesting lessons for today’s insurance market, as wellas for today’s mutualism.

Описание: This book re-evaluates the role of local agency and provides a new perspective to the political, social and cultural history of state formation, taking a microhistorical approach and through close analysis of archival sources between 1550 to 1700. The backcountry of the Republic of Genoa is a laboratory for gauging the weight and significance of two elements which, according to Charles Tilly and other scholars, have characterized the construction of the modern state: judicial administration and fiscal extraction. The instruments employed in this respect were arbitration and compensation. Interactions between center and periphery occurred within a stratified and discontinuous fabric of fluid jurisdictions and segmented residential topographies, which constituted spaces of mediation. Such spaces were generated by conflicts between kin groups (feuds and factional alignments) and managed both by Genoese officials and by local notables and notaries, who translated a whole set of local practices into judicial procedures. This book offers a rich contextualization of material life, family relationships, economic activities, and power struggles in a corner of the Mediterranean world that was extremely important, but about which very little has been published in English.
Описание: This collective volume explores the ways merchants managed to connect different spaces all over the globe in the early modern period by organizing the movement of goods, capital, information and cultural objects between different commercial maritime systems in the Mediterranean and Atlantic basin.
