Recenzii
'Guido Alfani and Matteo Di Tullio take two giant strides forward in the early history of inequality. First they expand our view of Europe's wealth inequalities over several centuries and across regions. Then they show how the state itself may have been a significant source of the rise in inequality, with its growing fiscal pressure on the poor.' Peter H. Lindert, co-author of Unequal Gains: American Growth and Inequality since 1700
'This is a monumental, first-ever study of income and wealth inequality, and impact of taxation and public expenditures in the Republic of Venice. Alfani and Di Tullio apply to the archival sources of Venice all the modern tools of inequality analysis. But the study does not aim only to shed light on the past, it uses the story of Venice to engage in a lively conversation with the present.' Branko Milanovic, author of Global Inequality: A New Approach for the Age of Globalization
'Economic inequality has a long history, which this book excavates in light of fresh data. It paints a grim picture of the lasting effects of regressive fiscal policies and opens up new research agendas. One of the most substantial contributions to the recent economic history of pre-industrial Europe.' Francesca Trivellato, author of The Familiarity of Strangers: The Sephardic Diaspora, Livorno, and Cross-Cultural Trade in the Early Modern Period
'Based on extensive quantitative and qualitative research from archival documents, this book presents new data and new conclusions on an important and timely topic - the steady growth of inequality in societies across early modern Europe from the Black Death to the end of the eighteenth century.' Samuel Cohn, Jr, author of Epidemics: Hate and Compassion from the Plague of Athens to AIDS
