Zwischen Bescheidenheit und Risiko
Das Ideal des ehrbaren Kaufmanns hat eine lange Tradition. In Europa wurden Tugenden wie Ehrlichkeit und Verlässlichkeit seit dem Mittelalter in Handbüchern für Kaufleute gelehrt. Das Leitbild des ehrbaren Kaufmannes, welches das Vertrauen in die Integrität des Handelspartners in das Zentrum rückte, entstand in einer Zeit, in der Kaufleute Reisende waren, denen man überwiegend mit Skepsis begegnete. In einer von Finanz- und Wirtschaftskrise geprägten Zeit wird das Leitbild des ehrbaren Kaufmanns wieder intensiv diskutiert. Die Beiträge dieses Bandes untersuchen dieses Leitbild aus der Perspektive unterschiedlicher Disziplinen wie Philosophie, Literaturwissenschaft, Geschichte, Rechtswissenschaft und Politikwissenschaft sowie erstmalig in kulturvergleichender Sicht (Europa, islamische Welt, Japan).

This was true not only in an economic sense-the Hispano-American silver peso transported across the Atlantic and the Pacific by the Spanish fleets wa...
