    Global goods, silver and market integration: consumption of wine, silk and porcelain through The Grill Company via Macao-Canton and Marseille-Seville trade nodes, 18th Century
    (Cambridge University Press, 2019-09-23) Pérez García, Manuel; Economía aplicada
    New global history studies have provided theoretical models related to different paths of economic growth and consumer behaviour between East Asia (mainly China and Japan) and Europe during the period of the first industrialisation. However, more research challenging the Eurocentric views of the origins of globalisation is needed. In this article, I examine the exchanges of Chinese silks and porcelains and European wines and liquors for American silver through the Swedish Grill Company. This company had extensive business activities in Canton and Macao establishing strategic links and intermediation with other relevant companies from China, Manila, Seville and Marseille. On the global level, such exchanges played a crucial role for the accumulation of American silver in China during the Qing dynasty, and the outflows of Chinese goods to the Americas and Europe fostered market integration and globalisation that occurred earlier than 1820.

    Hallazgo de un denario merovingio inédito de Marsella en la ciudad de Tarragona (España)
    (Universidad de Murcia, Servicio de Publicaciones, 2015) Martínez Chico, David; González García, Alberto
    Documentamos el importante descubrimiento de un denario merovingio procedente de Masilia (Marsella) en la ciudad catalana de Tarragona (España). Debido a la escasez de esta tipología, no solamente en el suelo peninsular, creemos que su publicación es de una gran importancia. Y más aún considerando que el estudio de las relaciones comerciales tanto de corto como de largo recorrido entre el reino visigodo de Toledo y la Francia merovingia se mantiene poco desarrollado.

    Murid religious recompositions from the South of France to Bahia in Brazil
    (Universidad de Murcia, Servicio de Publicaciones, 2025) da Silva Santana, Marluce; Sin departamento asociado
    In this article, I propose some reflections on Murid dahiras established by Senegalese migrants in the cities of Marseille, located in the south of France, and Salvador, capital of the state of Bahia, in Brazil. I sought to analyze factors involved in daily practices and associated with the experience of recomposition of followers of the same religious community in different sociocultural contexts, with the aim of understanding the possible singularities developed, as well as analyzing how the celebration of the Magal Touba takes place in these two locations, the main event held by the brotherhood, in celebration of the departure of the founder Cheikh Ahmadou Bamba to exile, with the aim of understanding the dynamics established by the Murid in each space observed.
