dc.description.abstract | This work aims to investigate the evolution of General Average and Insurance regulations and procedures in Genoa, as well as the ways in which they intersected, with a view to fully understanding the mechanisms for managing maritime trade risks from the late Middle Ages to the early modern age. To this end, by using two complementary sources – i.e. General Average claims and insurance policies – and by cross-referencing some available data sets dating to the period between the end of the sixteenth century and the beginning of the seventeenth century, we will attempt to determine how dangerous the routes connecting the port of Genoa used to be. Finally, we will give some examples to demonstrate how both institutions available to maritime merchants were actually working and complementing each other. | en_GB |
