This book examines the development of social support systems in the Modern age in the rural areas of the city-states of Northern Italy. This investigation achieves two main purposes: first, it allows researchers to understand the role occupied concretely by welfare and micro-credit activities in the political and socio-economic panorama of rural Northern Italy; secondly, it verifies to what extent the formation of a more or less structured support system influenced the establishment of local identity and the rooting of individuals. The book brings together perspectives from different fields of research ranging from economic and political history to the study of the history of ecclesiastical institutions, as well as integrating recent research on the anthropological value of welfare actions and the use of multiple historical sources. It considers how the retreat of the welfare activity of the State, associated with a depopulation of the rural areas of the peninsula and a steady increase of poverty into social fringes that were previously not affected by economic problems, pushes us to investigate more carefully the dynamics that in the Ancien Régime gave shape to the support activities against indigence and poverty. This book will be of interest to academics and students working in economic history and social history.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書探討了現代時代意大利北部城邦的鄉村地區社會支持系統的發展。這項研究實現了兩個主要目的:首先,它使研究人員能夠具體了解福利和小額信貸活動在意大利北部鄉村政治和社會經濟景觀中所扮演的角色;其次,它驗證了一個更或多或少結構化的支持系統的形成在多大程度上影響了當地身份的建立和個體的根植。本書匯集了來自不同研究領域的觀點,包括經濟和政治史研究,以及對教會機構歷史的研究,並整合了關於福利行動的人類學價值和多種歷史資料的最新研究。它考慮了國家福利活動的撤退,以及半島鄉村地區人口減少和貧困不斷增加,導致之前未受經濟問題影響的社會邊緣地帶陷入貧困,這促使我們更仔細地研究在舊制度時期形成的對抗貧困和窮困的支持活動的動態。本書將對從事經濟史和社會史研究的學者和學生感興趣。
