Abstract

This paper addresses the role of the Genoese merchants in the commercial success of the Nasrid sugar and their part as dynamic forces in the transfer of this activity towards other productive areas. It is not possible to ignore the major role played by the Genoese in launching the Nasrid sugar on international markets and their obvious interest to assume a more direct intervention in the sugar business. However, the latter was not achieved within Nasrid territories, where the productive fabric remained impenetrable for them. The constraints of a society still linked to a rural economy system, in which the principles of a speculative economy or its working system are not supported, may be the basis of those limitations.
