The author reconstructs the business network built by the Genoese merchant Domenico Grillo between the 1650s and the 1680s. Grillo's business interests stretched from the Mediterranean to Pacific South America, traversing and joining the Spanish, Dutch and English Atlantics. He and his associates created a new business model that was to be emulated by Dutch, French, and English traders in subsequent decades: the monopolistic asientos for the exploitation of the trans-imperial and intra-American slave trade to Spanish America. Offering a connected history of capitalism across trans-continental geographies and different empires, this book challenges established views of a period which has traditionally been interrogated from a northern European mercantile perspective. Cutting across the histories of the slave trade in the Atlantic world, early modern capitalism, and early modern empire, this study has much to offer to students and scholars interested in the agents, economic practices, and geographies of trade that do not easily fit into and therefore disrupt the traditional narratives of the Rise of the West"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Grillo, Domingo, $d active 1663-1674. 600 17 $a Grillo, Domingo, $d active 1663-1674. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01821812 650 0 $a Merchants $z Genoa $z Genoa $x History $y 17th century. 650 0 $a Slave trade $x History. $z America $z America $x History. 651 0 $a Genoa (Italy) $x History $x History $y 17th century. 651 0 $a Genoa (Italy) $x History, Naval $y 17th century. 650 7 $a Commerce. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00869279 650 7 $a Merchants. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01017057 651 7 $a Italy $z Genoa. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01225559 648 7 $a 1600-1699 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Naval history. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411632 776 08 $i Online version: $a Garcia-Monton, Alejandro, 1984- $t Genoese entrepreneurship and the asiento slave trade, 1650-1700 $d New York, NY : Routledge, 2022 $z 9781003242215 $w (DLC) 2021034119 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20230517011334.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=10D5AF06AF2611EC897049F049ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
