the IHR economic history scene is kicking off again - big questions about how merchants cooperate over long distances. it's more tenure track than grief's maghrebi. always worth a listen.
Join us on Tuesday 12th at the IHR/online for Esther Sahle and Ulla Kypta on "Solving the Principal-Agent Problem Through Apprenticeship: Evidence from Sixteenth-Century Germany" #econhist #twitterstorians

What London's guilds did for their members changed a lot between 1500 and 1700. We find that the people that Londoners trusted were often fellow guild members around 1500.
