The Case Study of Simon Ruiz Network, 1557-1597 MECHANISMS AND CRITERIA OF COOPERATION IN TRADING NETWORKS OF THE FIRST GLOBAL AGE The case study of Simon Ruiz network, 1557-1597 by Ana Sofia Vieira Ribeiro A thesis submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor in History Supervisor: Professor Doctor Amélia Polónia Co-supervisor: Professor Doctor Margrit Schulte Beerbhül Faculty of Arts, University of Porto 2011 2 Abstract Mechanisms and criteria of cooperation in trading networks of the first Global Age. The case study of Simon Ruiz network, 1557-1606. by Ana Sofia Vieira Ribeiro Cooperation is an essential behavior in human society. It presumes that people gather efforts to obtain a benefit at a minimum cost, even with different goals and with different motivations. This kind of behavior acquires a specific frame in connection with trade and financial markets and networks, in the present or in the past. This dissertation focuses in the study of the mechanisms and criteria of cooperation in those trade networks, in a wide sense, in the sixteenth century, through the case study of the New Christian Castilian merchant Simon Ruiz. His business affairs were extended throughout all Europe and some Portuguese and Spanish colonial spaces. For this purpose, letters of exchange and commercial correspondence, kept in the archive of his company are the main primary sources to check four different hypothesis: 1)The dynamics of cooperation in a certain historical network, besides conditioned by issues of economic and political conjucture, are related with intangible factors, as trust, reputation, gossip or risk. 2) Trading networks had a dynamic lifecycle, they arise, change and finish according to their own dynamics and pressured by contextual circumstances. 3) Partners in trade have the tendency to be more punitive regarding the breakdown of norms created by the functioning of the network. 4) The endogamy and kinship of an economic and financial network in the 16th century was limitative, since merchants and bankers were obliged to find partners outside the initial, familiar and ethnic network of cooperative contacts for them social and economic survival. Key words: cooperation, trading networks, trust, reputation A cooperação é um comportamento essencial na sociedade humana, de acordo com o qual as pessoas unem esforços para obter um benefício a um custo mínimo, mesmo tendo objetivos e motivações diferentes. Esse tipo de comportamento ganha formas específicas em redes de comércio e em mercados financeiros, no presente ou no passado. Esta dissertação pretende focalizar a atenção no estudo dos mecanismos e critérios de cooperação neste tipo de redes, no século XVI, através de um estudo de caso: o do cristão- novo castelhano Simon Ruiz, cuja actividade se estendeu por toda a Europa e nalguns espaços 3 coloniais de Portugal e Espanha. Para este propósito, letras de câmbio e correspondência comercial de sua empresa são as principais fontes primárias para testar quatro hipóteses diferentes: 1) A dinâmica da cooperação numa determinada rede histórica, além de condicionada por questões de conjuntura económica e política, estava relacionados com factores intangíveis, como a confiança, a reputação, o boato, ou o risco. 2) As redes de negócio tinham um ciclo de vida dinâmico: elas surgem, alteram-se e terminam de acordo com a sua própria dinâmica e pressionados por circunstâncias contextuais. 3) Os parceiros comerciais têm a tendência a ser mais punitivos em relação à quebra das normas criadas pelo funcionamento da rede. 4) A endogamia familiar e étnica de uma rede económica e financeira no século XVI era limitativa. Palavras-chave: cooperação, redes comerciais, confiança, reputação 4 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Writing a dissertation is supposed to be a lonely task. However, the participation in DyncoopNet’s research team has taught me, since the beginning of this process, four years ago, that I would need lots of help, learning and discussion with other people. To all of those I would like to thank (and I am sure I will forget someone): First of all, to those who tried to provide my demands in bibliography, especially librarians from the Faculty of Arts library (University of Porto), from the University Library of Santiago de Compostela and from various Faculty Libraries from the University of Lisbon. To Professor Inês Amorim and Helena Osswald for hearing my doubts, advising about bibliography and research opportunities, but mostly for considering this work. To History’s PhD colleagues in the Faculty of Arts, University of Porto with whom I exchanged doubts, problems, questions and insights so often. In those I have underline the unconditional friendship of Patrícia, Sara and Rosa who always had a caring word in times of dismay. To Professor Jack Owens, to whom I have to thank for creating a common broad research project as DyncoopNet, which opened so many new research questions and different methodologic fields. I also I have to thank for the support and for believing so much in my work and research abilities, which I hope to correspond. To Doctor Ana Crespo Solana, Professor David Alonso Garcia and Professor Cátia Antunes for the discussion on specific topics of this dissertation and for important bibliographic suggestions on Early Modern European history. To Flávio Pinheiro, Doctor Francisco Santos and Professor Jorge Pacheco from the Applications of Theoretical Physics Group, for important advices on the theory, bibliography and methodologies regarding cooperation studies. And also for being able to translate all the mathematics to my non-mathematical mind. To Professor Margrit Schulte-Beerbhül for accepting to be the co-supervisor of this dissertation and for successively clarifying my doubts with her expertise in Early Modern business networks, merchant correspondence analysis and important theoretical insights that has given to this dissertation. To João Carvalho for all the technical support on the constitution and improvements of the DyncoopNet’s-pt database and for being tireless in creating all the research SQL queries I needed for this research project. 5 To Professor Joaquim Carvalho for being my Master regarding historical network analysis. Almost all I know on that topic, I owe to him. Finally, to Professor Amélia Polónia. I have no words to express my gratitude for the opportunity she has given to me for participating in this research project. In this four-year journey I could count with her expertise advices, her friendly words, her companionship in all the things we have learned together. Mostly, I have to thank for the entire expertise and research rigor she has shared with me. I hope we will continue to work together for many years. 6 TABLE OF CONTENTS Table of contents, 7 List of Charts, 9 List of Figures, 9 List of Tables, 10 Network Analysis terms, 11 Acronyms and abbreviations, 11 0.

  • Debt Policy Under Constraints: Philip II, the Cortes, and Genoese Bankers1 by CARLOS ÁLVAREZ-NOGAL and CHRISTOPHE CHAMLEY*
    bs_bs_banner Economic History Review (2013) Debt policy under constraints: Philip II, the Cortes, and Genoese bankers1 By CARLOS ÁLVAREZ-NOGAL and CHRISTOPHE CHAMLEY* Under Philip II, Castile was the first country with a large nation-wide domestic public debt. A new view of that fiscal system is presented that is potentially relevant for other fiscal systems in Europe before 1800. The credibility of the debt, mostly in perpetual redeemable annuities, was enhanced by decentralized funding through taxes administered by cities making up the Realm in the Cortes.The accumulation of short-term debt depended on refinancing through long-term debt. Financial crises in the short-term debt occurred when the service of the long-term debt reached the revenues of its servicing taxes. They were not caused by liquidity crises and were resolved after protracted negotiations in the Cortes by tax increases and interest rate reductions. ing Philip II, as head of the first modern super-power, managed a budget on Ka scale that had not been seen since the height of the Roman Empire.2 No state before had faced such extraordinary fluctuations and imbalances, both in revenue and expenditure. Large military expenses were required by the politics of Europe and the revolution in military technology. The variability in both revenue and expenses, coupled with a large foreign component, was met by large public borrowings up to modern levels, a historical innovation that, in later centuries, would be followed by the Netherlands, France, and England. Like eighteenth- century England, Castile (about 80 per cent of modern-day Spain) established its military supremacy through its superior ability to mobilize large resources through borrowing.

  • Season 5 Article
    N.B. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE READER USE 2-PAGE VIEW (BOOK FORMAT WITH SCROLLING ENABLED) IN ACROBAT READER OR BROWSER. “EVEN’ING IT OUT – A NEW PERSPECTIVE ON THE LAST TWO YEARS OF “THE TWILIGHT ZONE” Television Series (minus ‘THE’)” A Study in Three Parts by Andrew Ramage © 2019, The Twilight Zone Museum. All rights reserved. Preface With some hesitation at CBS, Cayuga Productions continued Twilight Zone for what would be its last season, with a thirty-six episode pipeline – a larger count than had been seen since its first year. Producer Bert Granet, who began producing in the previous season, was soon replaced by William Froug as he moved on to other projects. The fifth season has always been considered the weakest and, as one reviewer stated, “undisputably the worst.” Harsh criticism. The lopsidedness of Seasons 4 and 5 – with a smattering of episodes that egregiously deviated from the TZ mold, made for a series much-changed from the one everyone had come to know. A possible reason for this was an abundance of rather disdainful or at least less-likeable characters. Most were simply too hard to warm up to, or at the very least, identify with. But it wasn’t just TZ that was changing. Television was no longer as new a medium. “It was a period of great ferment,” said George Clayton Johnson. By 1963, the idyllic world of the 1950s was disappearing by the day. More grittily realistic and reality-based TV shows were imminent, as per the viewing audience’s demand and it was only a matter of time before the curtain came down on the kinds of shows everyone grew to love in the 50s.

  • The Twilight Zone: Landmark Television Derek Kompare
    The Twilight Zone: Landmark Television Derek Kompare From the original edition of How to Watch Television published in 2013 by New York University Press Edited by Ethan Thompson and Jason Mittell Accessed at nyupress.org/9781479898817 This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial- NoDerivatives 4.0 International License (CC BY-NC-ND). 32 The Twilight Zone Landmark Television Derek Kompare Abstract: Few programs in television history are as iconic as Te Twilight Zone, which lingers in cultural memory as one of the medium’s most distinctive aesthetic and cultural peaks. Derek Kompare examines the show’s signature style and voice of its emblematic creator Rod Serling, exploring how the program’s legacy lives on today across genres and eras. As with any other art form, television history is in large part an assemblage of exemplary works. Industrial practices, cultural infuences, and social contexts are certainly primary points of media histories, but these factors are most ofen recognized and analyzed in the form of individual texts: moments when par- ticular forces temporarily converge in unique combinations, which subsequently function as historical milestones. Regardless of a perceived historical trajectory towards or away from “progress,” certain programs have come to represent the confuence of key variables at particular moments: I Love Lucy (CBS, 1951–1957) revolutionized sitcom production; Monday Night Football (ABC, 1970–2005; ESPN, 2005–present) supercharged the symbiotic relationship of sports and tele- vision; Hill Street Blues (NBC, 1981–1987) introduced the “quality” serial drama to primetime. Te Twilight Zone (CBS, 1959–1964) is an anomalous case, simultaneously one of the most important and least representative of such milestones.

  • TWILIGHT ZONE Di Fabio Giovannini
    ROD SERLING’S THE TWILIGHT ZONE di Fabio Giovannini “C’è una quinta dimensione, oltre a quelle conosciute dall’uomo: è una dimensione grande come lo spazio e smisurata come l’infinito, è a mezza strada fra la luce e l’ombra, fra la scienza e la superstizione, fra la sommità delle cognizioni dell’Uomo ed il fondo dei suoi smarrimenti. È la dimensione della fantasia, è una zona che noi chiamiamo: ‘Il confine della realtà’. Dal 1959 milioni di schermi televisivi hanno trasmesso queste parole introduttive per una serie di telefilm che prometteva di condurre lo spettatore nella “quinta dimensione”. Le pronunciava, almeno nella versione originale americana, un serio personaggio dal naso schiacciato, Rod Serling. Nel 1959, quando iniziò The Twilight zone, era un personaggio del tutto sconosciuto, ma dopo un solo anno gli americani riconoscevano immediatamente la voce e i tratti di questo ospite che accompagnava nel territorio tra la luce e le tenebre, tra la scienza e la superstizione. Rod Serling in Italia non ha avuto alcuna fama, ma le sue parole “introduttive” sono egualmente entrate nelle tranquille case del bel- paese, per qualche anno. Le persone normali di Ai confini della realtà sempre precipitate in situazioni straordinarie, erano cesellate sul modello del cittadino medio statunitense, ma anche l’uomo comune italiano poteva identificarsi nelle fobie umane portate agli eccessi dall’abile Rod Serling. Twilight Zone (letteralmente la zona del crepuscolo) il serial televisivo che in Italia è stato trasmesso dalla RAI all’inizio degli anni Sessanta con il titolo Ai confini della realtà è stata la più lunga serie Tv di argomento fantastico prodotta negli Stati Uniti, se si eccettua la soap-opera Dark Shadows (le avventure del vampiro buono Barnabas Collins).

He also defaulted four times on Received 1 April 2010 his short-term loans, thus becoming the first serial defaulter in history. Contrary to a common Available online 18 October 2010 view in the literature, we show that lending to the king was profitable even under worst-case scenario assumptions. Lenders maintained long-term relationships with the crown. Losses JEL classification: sustained during defaults were more than compensated by profits in normal times. Defaults N23 were not catastrophic events. In effect, short-term lending acted as an insurance mechanism, F34 allowing the king to reduce his payments in harsh times in exchange for paying a premium in G12 tranquil periods. © 2010 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. Keywords: Sovereign debt Serial default Rate of return Profitability Spain 1. Introduction Sovereign lending is a risky business. From its earliest days, lenders put their fate into the hands of princes. Many lost capital, property, and some, their lives. Payment stops, defaults, and outright repudiations have been common since individuals and banks started lending to sovereigns. A select group of states have failed to honor their obligations multiple times, earning the moniker of ‘serial defaulters’ (Reinhart et al., 2003).
