Abstract:

This paper aims to fill a gap in the scant literature on accounting practices in non-Anglo-Saxon countries in under- researched periods by exploring the Monte di Piet&agrave; of Ravenna, an Italian non-profit institution. The research draws upon original 18th and 19th century documents found in the Monte di Piet&agrave; of Ravenna and offers an internal perspective of the development of accounting technology before and after an &lsquo;intacco&rsquo; episode, thus attempting to shed light on the significance of accounting in that context. The originality of the Ravenna episode, compared to other similar ones experienced by Monti, consists in its extension over time and in its recurrence by three generations of administrators linked by kinship bonds, who systematically damaged the Monte between 1797 and 1837. The new form of control of the Monte&rsquo;s activities after the &ldquo;intacco&rdquo; based on accounting technologies, and realised a new relation between power and knowledge in which accounting was the tool to exercise disciplinary power, thus making people more governable. Accounting technologies relied upon a more articulated financial statement that included the institute&rsquo;s transactions and events.

Abstract:

Les archives toscanes contiennent une importante documentation illustrant divers aspects des premières années des prêteurs sur gages des Monti di Pietà. On y trouve de riches informations sur le sexe et le statut des emprunteurs, sur les montants empruntés, sur les intérêts, ainsi que sur les conditions de rachat des effets mis en gage. Certaines archives — celles du monte de Prato par exemple — contiennent des registres dans lesquels les comptables du monte inscrivaient les opérations « interdites », dont l’existence ne devait pas apparaître dans les registres officiels. Ces registres privés contiennent des entrées qui font état de mises en gage de biens atypiques, telles que des biens précieux, qui, selon les lois, ne pouvaient être reçus en gage en retour de prêts, étant donné que ces emprunteurs n’appartenaient pas au groupe social désigné comme « nécessiteux et pauvre ». Par ailleurs, des gages étaient également donnés en échange d’argent, qui n’était pas utilisé pour les premières nécessitées, mais bien plutôt dépensé pour des activités « immorales » telles que les jeux de hasard et les aventures galantes.

Abstract:

L’émergence des Monti di Pietà dans les villes italiennes des débuts de la modernité a joué un rôle important en permettant une grande circulation des liquidités dans les portions moins nanties du marché. À travers le prêt sur gage, le Monte offrait la possibilité de transformer temporairement en argent liquide les petites richesses non-monétaires, à divers degrés de l’échelle sociale. Le Monte a ainsi contribué à l’expansion du crédit, et exercé une importante fonction anticyclique dans les économies locales. En puisant dans les archives d’une de ces institutions les plus prospères — le Monte de Bologne —, cet article explore l’étendue de ce phénomène, l’importance des montants en jeu, la variété des biens mis en gage, ainsi que l’impressionnante variété des clients. Au sommet des activités du Monte, ses clients n’appartenaient plus seulement à la classe des travailleurs pauvres. Toutefois, ce changement n’a pas nuit à l’accessibilité du crédit aux classes pauvres, mais a plutôt contribué à ce que ces services soit offerts pour moins cher à ceux véritablement dans le besoin.

Abstract:

Este trabajo versa sobre los bancos públicos napolitanos. Estas instituciones son particularmente interesantes en la historia de la banca y de la contabilidad bancaria porque fueron las primeras en emitir papel moneda en forma de unos certificados de depósito o fedi di credito en la segunda mitad del siglo XVI. Estos certificados eran transmisibles por endoso y su emisión vino impuesta de alguna manera por la necesidad práctica de remediar la escasez crónica de numerario metálico que padecia el Reino de Nápoles, incorporado enaquella época a la Corona española. El primer banco público, llamado asi, no porque fuera de capital público, sino porque gozaba del apoyo y del reconocimiento de las autoridades gubernamentales, al tiempo que estaba sometido a su control, fue el Monte di Pietà. En el curso del trabajo se explican con detenimiento las circunstancias y dificultades económicas del Virreinato, con las frecuentes quiebras de banqueros privados, la creciente escasez de moneda metálica, la falsificación de la moneda, el recorte y cercenamiento de la buena, lafuga de la misma al exterior, el ambiente enrarecido de la nobleza y sus intentos de rebelión, el fracasado intento de Felipe II, en 1574, de auspiciar la creación en el reino de Nápoles de un banco único, con funciones de banco de Estado, con el fin de desarrollar el servicio de Tesoreria y, sobre todo, de conceder a la Corte préstamos en condiciones ventajosas -curioso paralelismo con los debates en España sobre este mismo tema en esos mismos años-, etc., motivos todos ellos que impulsaron al Virrey, entre finales de los años sesenta e inicios de los setenta, a reconocer valor oficial de moneda a los certificados de depósito emitidos por el Monte, en el sentido de concederles el privilegio de poder ser usados en los pagos a hacer al Estado por cualquier concepto. Ante el éxito obtenido por el Monte di Pietà, este mismo privilegio fue concedido a otros seis bancos más a finales del siglo y comienzos del siglo XVII. Los siete bancos públicos napolitanos cumplieron satisfactoriamente la misión para la que habian surgido y sus certificados de depósito fueron un dinero que gozó de general aceptación, alcanzando un elevado volumen de circulación y una rápida tasa de rotación. A finales del siglo XIX se fusionaron los sietebancos para dar lugar al actual Banco di Napoli. Su impresionante documentación contable se conserva en el Archivo histórico de esta entidad. Especialmente interesante es el sofisticado sistema contable instrumentado para contabilizar la emisión, seguimiento, control y cancelación de los certificados de depósito, como puede apreciarse por las explicaciones ofrecidas en la última parte del trabajo.

Abstract:

Dans l’Italie de la Renaissance, ce sont les vêtements qui sont le plus couramment mis en gage par ceux qui cherchent à obtenir des prêts auprès des banquiers juifs et du Monte di Pietà. Des robes, des chemises et même des chaussures sont mis en gage, et les vêtements féminins le sont plus souvent que les vêtements masculins. Cet article examine les divers types de vêtements que les emprunteurs — hommes et femmes — offraient de mettre en gage, dans le but de déterminer leur qualité et leur valeur, et de cerner ainsi l’identité de ces clients. En prenant appui sur cette thématique, cet article montre comment l’analyse des changements de types de vêtements mis en gage à la fin du XVe et au XVIe siècle peut nous aider à mieux comprendre les changements de motivations et d’identités des emprunteurs de cette époque.

Abstract:

While the mercantile value of mercy in The Merchant of Venice has been often highlighted, the diminished role of pity has received scant attention. This article argues that the ways in which mercy is shown to subsume and eventually incorporate pity throw light on the play’s negotiation of contentious religious and political approaches to the spectres of poverty and/or impoverishment that threaten the emerging mercantile economy. A re-reading of relevant scenes retraces the Catholic implications of the safety-net potential of pity which, unlike the Protestant worldly pity of The Sonnets, here seems bound for repression. In Portia’s final donation to the merchants of Venice even the lingering allusions to Catholicism are neutralized and put to the service of vested interests: a conflation of Christian and Jewish usury that cuts across all religious divides; such allusions are possibly reminiscent of the Monti di Pietà (Mounts of Piety) existent in Italy since 1462 to counter Jewish usury.

Abstract:

Il existe une longue tradition d’études des Monti di Pietà, qui est presqu’entièrement publiée en italien. Cet article propose une revue historiographique de ces recherches, en se basant sur quatre thèmes centraux les ayant orientées. Le premier de ces thèmes correspond aux relations entre les banques et les premiers Monti, et à la question de savoir s’ils étaient de véritables banques ou des institutions charitables. Le deuxième thème correspond au contexte de ces pratiques formé par les débats théologiques et les opinions juridiques de la fin du Moyen Âge et de la Renaissance. Le troisième thème est centré sur l’influence des prédicateurs franciscains, incluant comment leurs discours antisémites ont été contrebalancés par les préoccupations économiques locales, pour former un compromis pratique. Le quatrième thème correspond au rôle et à la fonction qu’ont joués les Monti dans le Royaume de Naples. En conclusion, cette revue examine les recherches sur les Monti publiées en anglais depuis les années 1930.

Abstract:

Introduction: The study compares two banking systems that have marked and mark the current system in Europe and the Middle East. The Monti di Pietà of 1500 and the Islamic banks which have developed several key features of the past, present the pillars of the Neo-Aristotelian concept of common good. Aim of the work: The study aims to identify the historical, cultural, and accounting factors, similarities, and ethical principles of the two models to identify key ele-ments supporting the common good concept. Methodological approach: This study adopts a historiographical approach that delves into the relationship between narrative, interpretive, and explanatory history, in which it argues that the historical narrative involves elements of interpretation and explanation. Furthermore, a considerable importance is given to the banking environment's political, religious, and regulatory aspects. Main findings: The analysis conducted traces ethical, cultural, and religious components, highlighting many aspects that confirm the starting theory and enrich its conception through financial models that are apparently distant from each other. The study highlights how reciprocity, solidarity, and support for the social fabric of growth have joint agreements and aspects characterizing the two models. Originality: The study provides and integrates significant elements on which the concept of the common good is based.

Abstract:

Abstract Studies concerning the Monti di Pietà have quite a long tradition; in the past decades, however, this institution has been studied from new perspectives. After arguing in favor of the Marches (central Italy) as a privileged view angle on the phenomenon, the paper touches upon some complex relationships existing between political authorities and Observant Franciscan preachers, who campaigned in favor of the Monti on explicit invitation of local authorities. The question of the actual functioning of the Monti is also connected with the mechanisms of social inclusion and exclusion; the role of Jewish moneylenders, who were the major targets of Observant preaching in favor of the Monti, is also a key issue for the understanding of the institution.

Abstract:

A partire dalla documentazione settecentesca di due tribunali civili di Torino, l'articolo tenta di ricostruire i circuiti del piccolo credito cittadino: accanto ai monti di pietÀ e ai banchi degli ebrei, erano le botteghe cittadine ad alimentare il mercato del credito attraverso il prestito di piccole somme di denaro e le dilazione dei pagamenti concessi per lo piů sulla parola. La frequenza di accordi basati sulla fiducia e sull'appartenenza ad un circuito di relazioni, pone il problema delle differenti possibilitÀ di accesso al credito per cittadini e forestieri. Sui meccanismi di inclusione ed esclusione dal mercato del credito incideva anche l'azione delle istituzioni, in particolare dei tribunali cittadini, chiamati a certificare e consolidare gli accordi commerciali piů fragili. A partire da questa constatazione e ricostruendo alcuni casi particolari, l'articolo tenta infine di individuare quei momenti cruciali in cui si rendeva necessario il ricorso al tribunale e la formalizzazione di accordi che fino a quel momento erano rimasti orali.

Abstract:

Indonesia is a country with the most Muslim population in the world. According to Global religius future, at the beginning of 2020, 87% of its citizens were Muslims or around 209.12 million people. This is very potential for the development of zakat in Indonesia. Because basically, muzakki will still be there every year or month so that economic sustainability will be maintained and sustainable. Zakat has three fundamental functions, namely to purify the soul, blessing fortune and as an expression of social care for others. Zakat is a mandatory command of God to Muslims stated in the Qur'an and the Hadith of the Prophet Muhammad. The pillars of Islam as the five foundations of Islamic identity, are the driving force in increasing piety. Coupled with the six pillars of faith as a basic manifestation of our faith in Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'aalaa. However, what remains a problem is that Indonesia, with the status of the largest Muslim country in the world, has not been able to break the zakat into a source of state income as well as taxes. Zakat is still voluntary. While the 2011 Zakat Law No. 23 concerning the Management of Zakat only requires amil and its management procedures, which must follow the guidelines of Islamic law.Keywords : Zakat; Sharia; Islamic Law.

Abstract:

La mise en gage d’objets de valeur était commune dans les sociétés des débuts de la modernité, où elle était utilisée par toutes les classes sociales pour obtenir des liquidités, ou comme moyen de paiement. L’absence à Venise de prêteurs sur gage officiels tels que les Monti di Pietà faisait en sorte que les prêts sur gage et la circulation de l’argent en lien avec cette pratique étaient centrés sur le Ghetto. Les banquiers juifs avaient le droit de recevoir en gage des objets en échange de prêts, et délivraient des reçus officiels (bollettino) faisant état de ces transactions. Ils contrôlaient ainsi une proportion importante du marché de seconde main à Venise. Ces reçus étaient conservés avec beaucoup de soin, étant donné qu’ils permettaient aux emprunteurs de récupérer leur bien après remboursement de la somme empruntée et des intérêts. Ils sont souvent mentionnés dans les inventaires officiels comme représentants des objets réels mais entreposés temporairement dans un autre endroit. Cet article analyse les reçus, les objets qu’ils représentent et leur possesseurs, retracés dans un corpus de près de 1000 inventaires couvrant la période 1511–1600, tiré des Archivio di Stato de Venise.

Abstract:

AbstractThis article studies the development of poor relief in the rural areas of the diocese of Tortona in the eighteenth century, through the analysis of the parish reports written for the pastoral visits of bishops Giulio Resta and Giuseppe Lodovico Andujar in 1741 and 1743. The reports record the most important assistance activities organised by different social actors: dowries for poor girls; bread, money and clothing to distribute to the poor; but also formal support in the form of hospitals providing shelter and care for pilgrims and the sick; the monti di pietà, which loaned money and the grain stores, which provided essential loans of grain. The diocese of Tortona in the eighteenth century represents a privileged point of view for understanding how the development of poor relief in the ancien régime was influenced by the political and institutional, geographical, landowning and socio-ecomomic context. Here, a complex institutional situation, combined with a diverse geographical and socio-economic context, gave rise to a variety of poor relief systems.

Abstract:

This paper analyzes the legitimacy strategies of Monte di Pietà of Perugia – the first ever Italian Monte di Pietà - in its early years of activity (1462-1468). Monte di Pietà represent an innovative case of historical financial institutions, a result of the Franciscan preaching to fight against usury and to respect the Catholic ban on any kind of remuneration for loaned capital. But to ensure its survival, Monte needed to request interest, immediately introducing problems of legitimacy. So, the institution endeavored to design strategies to rebuild its legitimacy toward its immediate audience. Starting from Suchman’s (1995) approach to legitimacy restoring strategies, and through an archival and interpretive analysis, the aims of the paper are as follows: to provide a plausible interpretation of changes in the administrative system, to report how those innovations constituted actions to successfully restore legitimacy, and to illuminate interactions among pragmatic, moral, and cognitive strategies.
