Research review (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Historians of globalization have considered how the early phases of globalization brought about changes in localized legal systems. But rather than pursuing the conventional approach of identifying ways in which the law developed to function on a more global scale, we adopt a localized perspective to examine how a landscape of different legal systems offered myriad opportunities in which the entrepreneurial activities of many actors could flourish. Instead of investigating the ‘usual suspects’ of the mercantile world – the seemingly ubiquitous, multi-faceted ‘merchants’ – we focus on the economic role played by seamen as traders by interrogating ‘economic’ and ‘legal’ evidence to illuminate the spread of their entrepreneurial activities across the globe. We take a comparative view of this broad subject by seeking to identify similarities and contrasts in the economic behaviour of seafarers from various European countries. In spatial terms, our focus is on the Mediterranean basin, because this was the first area in which different European legal and business models clashed. However, the session at the XVIIth World Economic History in Kyoto was conceived to include a wider selection of early modern examples, as it is our contention that these clashes were formative elements in the economic tide that swept across the Atlantic and Indian Oceans, giving rise to early modern globalization.

Conference paper (other academic/artistic)abstract
- In the 2010 Journal of Transport Geography Notteboom presented how the structure of Europe's container ports has been during 1985-2005. An economic historian who has studied trade during the early modern times immediately recognises the overview. There are striking resemblances between the gateways and multi-gateways port regions that Notteboom works with and with trade during the early modern times. The trade routes and transport systems built up during the age of sail ships have, in large part, the same importance today. This clearly shows that research in early modern trade and shipping has an important role to play when it comes to understanding modern infrastructure. In our paper, we will work with the shipping and trade through the gateway city of Gothenburg during chosen years between 1720 and 1804. The city's location between the North Sea and the Baltic Sea places it in the middle of one of the central regions in the world's economic development during the first period of globalisation. It was in this region that the superpowers of the time got much of the raw materials they needed. To try to understand the shape of shipping and trade in this region is therefore vital to understanding global developments. The source material is made up by custom records from Gothenburg harbour. These will be used to track ship movements to and from Gothenburg to determine the city's place in a larger system of gateways, primarily when it comes to the textiles and coal groups of goods, as well as products related to the substantial herring fishing industry. The theoretical starting point for the study is the extensive structure of theories that have been developed around gateways. Different opportunities to use the custom records in an analysis of shipping structure will be discussed. Which part of the information in the source material is suitable to use (goods, skipper, destinations)? How can one, in the best possible way, make the results comparable to other studies? This is a few of the questions that will be discussed in our methods section. The main point of this paper will be the analysis of the gateway system as seen from the Gothenburg horizon.
