Located in a happy position on earth and sea, in the XV sec. Ragusa (Dubrovnik) was the protagonist of the scambi in the Mediterranean and constituted an important reference point for all merchants who sailed to Costantinopoli. Tre furono le merci attorno cui la piccola Repubblica built her own fortune, richiamando l'attenzione di numerosi operatori, in particular italiani: l'argento delle miniere balcaniche, il grano pugliese ei panni di lana. In this volume, the construction of the international dimension of Ragusa passes through the risk of molteplici studi, soprattutto di slava area, condotti during the second half of the Novecento, integrated into a rich unpublished documentation of public nature, notarial and blueprints, preserved for negligent archivi ragusei and italiani . In particular, there are figures in consideration and accounting records and the cart of Piero Pantella, a Piacentino operator who transferred to Ragusa in 1415, from which the significant commercial activity of the merchant voyages in the city of Dalmata emerges, but also the important wheel that egli ricoprì nello sviluppo della manifattura tessile ragusea. Paola Pinelli insegna Storia Economica alla Scuola di Economia e Management dell'Università degli Studi di Firenze. The activities of research and its publications are dedicated, other than the Monti di Pietà of the origins and all the conditions of life in the Tuscan medieval cities, all the presence, all the activities and all the economic culture of the Italian operators in Ragusa in the XV secolo . From there emerges the significant commercial activity that the merchant svolse in the city of Dalmata, but also the important wheel that egli ricoprì nello sviluppo della manifattura tessile ragusea.

The Mexican Revolution has long been considered a revolution of peasants. But Aurora Gómez-Galvarriato's investigation of the mill towns of the Orizaba Valley reveals that industrial workers played a neglected but essential role in shaping the Revolution. By tracing the introduction of mechanized industry into the valley, she connects the social and economic upheaval unleashed by new communication, transportation, and production technologies to the political unrest of the revolutionary decade. Industry and Revolution makes a convincing argument that the Mexican Revolution cannot be understood apart from the changes wrought by the Industrial Revolution, and thus provides a fresh perspective on both transformations. By organizing collectively on a wide scale, the spinners and weavers of the Orizaba Valley, along with other factory workers throughout Mexico, substantially improved their living and working conditions and fought to secure social and civil rights and reforms. Their campaigns fed the imaginations of the masses. The Constitution of 1917, which embodied the core ideals of the Mexican Revolution, bore the stamp of the industrial workers' influence. Their organizations grew powerful enough to recast the relationship between labor and capital, not only in the towns of the valley, but throughout the entire nation. The story of the Orizaba Valley offers insight into the interconnections between the social, political, and economic history of modern Mexico. The forces unleashed by the Mexican and the Industrial revolutions remade the face of the nation and, as Gómez-Galvarriato shows, their consequences proved to be enduring.

The delicate beauty of the cashmere shawl was first brought to Europe by the East India Companies and Napoleon's campaigns. Woven in Kashmir, its fabric was so light that, according to legend, a whole shawl could be passed through a finger ring. This title focuses on French cashmere shawls.
