Economy, resources and mountain regions: historiographical paths and comparative elements (Apennine Alps, Pyrenees), 16th to 18th centuries
For a long time, the mountains were considered marginal lands, where routine and archaism prevailed. However, in modern times, Europe's mountains were crossed by a widespread economic and social dynamism. By examining three mountain massifs in continental Europe (the Alps, the Apennines and the Pyrenees), the article outlines a comparative path revolving around a number of research themes that in the last twenty years have generated a rich – though still little interconnected – historiographic production. Mobility, in its multiple forms and dynamics, exchanges taking shape around commercial infrastructures and the actors using them, and finally the forms of appropriation and management of resources, outline the points of convergence and divergence that characterize the historiographic orientations of the three mountain ranges, while confirming the paradigm shift that Alpine historiography inaugurated at the end of the last century.
