Croce 77, will be held the international workshop “Interessi e regole: operatori e istituzioni nel commercio transalpino in età moderna (secoli XVI-XIX)” (Interests and rules: transalpine trade operators and institutions in modern times (16th-19th centuries)) organized by the FBK Centre for Italian-German Historical Studies and by the Department of Economy of the University of Trento.
