Le nouveau numéro des Quaderni storici fait la part belle aux thématiques abordées par le projet ERC ConfigMed. Son dossier a pour titre Frodi marittime tra norme e istituzioni (secc. VII-XIX), et traite des fraudes maritimes en Méditerranée. Il a été coédité par Biagio Salvemini (membre actif du projet ERC) et Roberto Zaugg. Plusieurs membres du projet ont participé à sa conception, avec entre autre un article de Guillaume Calafat, Christopher Denis Delacour et Andrea Addobbati. Voici ci-dessous une présentation (en Anglais) du dossier. Vous trouverez ci-après le sommaire de celui-ci.
This special issue examines the relations between norms, institutions and economic behaviour with regard to the increasing regulation of maritime trade in the age of mercantilism and from the perspective of those widespread illegal practices performed by social actors. It argues that frauds were not so much the result of a lack of norms and of institutional control. Rather, they emerged through an intense interaction between social actors and institutional powers and through a manipulative use of legal norms.
