Abstract

This article discusses the relationships between fiscal estates and medieval economy; in particular, it frames the transition from the Roman era to the Middle Ages as the likely shift from one form of state economy (which was quite complex, Mediterranean-wide, and based on direct taxation) to another one (simplified, regionalised, with a few taxes) whose backbone was constituted by the fiscal patrimony. It then focuses on the management of the royal domain in its relation with external phenomena of economic growth, and eventually emphasises the ‘functional continuity’ of that domain in the long term.
