The Economy of the Principality of Transylvania, the Regulation of Guild Life under Gábor Bethlen, with Special Regard to the Parallels with Modern-Day Regulation

Keywords: Gábor Bethlen; Transylvania; guild; bootmakers; regulation;

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the study is to provide a sketch of the economy of Transylvania in the princely period. The study will touch on the legal and economic aspects, but also on possible micro- and art-historical connections. The latter aspect is justified by the fact that Gábor Bethlen issued a charter regulating the operation and life of certain guilds. The publication of the regulations of the bootmakers’ guild in a princely charter is also worthy of analysis because it reveals several regulatory parallels with the modern-day context.
