Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to compare about the foundation of the commercial cities in the Mediterranean between Europe and the Middle East, focusing on the institution of guild. It also aims at making clearer the difference of the roles and functions of the guilds and that of the societies in which the guilds are situated. In the field research in Aleppo, Cairo, and Damietta, our team has made a research on the suq(traditional market in Islamic world) intensively, by interviewing the people in the suq and in the Chamber of Commerce, and collecting the valuable materials such as the ancient texts of the court records and the historical documents on this subject. On the subject of the guild, which is the main theme of this study, we have focused on the Hirfa,I.e., Islamic cooperation of the artisans and merchants. Being different from the European guilds, Hirfa has been embedded in the market and never exercised the political and economic power independently. It was closely related with the institutions of Hisba and Muhtasib. Guild in Islamic world is totally different from that in Europe. Therefore, the difference of the nature and functions of the guild between the north of the Mediterranean(Europe) and the south(Islamic world) is one of the reflection of the difference of the culture and the structure of societies.
