Hardback. Condition: New. This is the most in-depth analysis of inequality and social polarization ever attempted for a preindustrial society. Using data from the archives of the Venetian Terraferma, and compared with information available for elsewhere in Europe, Guido Alfani and Matteo Di Tullio demonstrate that the rise of the fiscal-military state served to increase economic inequality in the early modern period. Preindustrial fiscal systems tended to be regressive in nature, and increased post-tax inequality compared to pre-tax - in contrast to what we would assume is the case in contemporary societies. This led to greater and greater disparities in wealth, which were made worse still as taxes were collected almost entirely to fund war and defence rather than social welfare. Though focused on Old Regime Europe, Alfani and Di Tullio's findings speak to contemporary debates about the roots of inequality and social stratification.

Brossura. Condition: new. Roma, 2024; br., pp. 252, cm 15x22.(Studi Superiori). La crisi ecologica che stiamo vivendo ha portato l'ambiente al centro del dibatto di molte discipline, compresa la storia. Il volume riflette sui principali temi e problemi della storia ambientale in età moderna: un periodo fondamentale per comprendere l'emergere dell'Antropocene. Il libro approfondisce di volta in volta un differente nucleo tematico tra quelli chiamati in causa nella storia delle relazioni socio-ecologiche: dalla Piccola era glaciale al rapporto tra epidemie e condizioni ambientali, dalla gestione delle risorse naturali al legame controverso tra gli umani e gli altri animali, dai cambiamenti negli agroecosistemi alle cause dei cosiddetti "disastri naturali", dall'impatto della colonizzazione europea sugli altri continenti al lungo percorso di evoluzione delle scienze come mezzo per controllare la natura. Oltre a presentarsi come un testo di discussione e a integrare le ricerche degli autori con la più recente letteratura, il libro è un'efficace introduzione per insegnamenti di storia ambientale e uno strumento di approfondimento per corsi monografici. Libro.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The early decades of the sixteenth century were a turbulent time for the Italian peninsula as competing centres of power struggled for political control. Nowhere was this more true than the area contested by Milan and Venice, that was constantly crossed and occupied by rival armies. Investigating the impact of successive crises upon the inhabitants of the Po Valley, this book challenges many fundamental assumptions about the relationship between war and economic development and draws conclusion that have implications for early modern Europe as a whole. In traditional historiography, periods of war and general crisis have often been regarded as promoting a shift in resources from the communal towards a small number of individuals. However, through a close micro-study of a single region, this book offers a different perspective. Rather than promoting an aggressive individualism, it is argued that in times of general crisis, social networks aimed to reproduce themselves and the original status quo by developing creative solutions and institutions favouring co-operation. Furthermore the elites could not always exploit 'local' wealth because of the need to protect their position of leadership within the community, which required the preservation of that very community. This thesis not only challenges the received wisdom, but also fuels a new debate about the ways in which economic growth occurred in Early Modern Italy and Europe.
