Abstract

[Autom. eng. transl.] The essay is the presentation of a report presented at the 15th World Economic History Congress in Utrecht (Netherlands) in 2009. The text, based on a long research path already completed by the author, retraces all the phases of the constitution of the geometric-particle cadastres in Austrian Lombardy and then, during the nineteenth century, in the Lombard-Veneto Kingdom. The text systematically analyzes the identity of the land registry by re-reading the studies of authoritative Italian historians and describes the regulatory and bureaucratic structure of the formation of the "new census". Finally, the essay presents the introduction of land tax and the related reform of local administrations. The peculiar aspect of the essay is the discussion in historical terms of the relationship between the implementation of the cadastral and predial reform with the development of modernization in agriculture. This theme is linked to the line of international studies between "property rights" and economic and social development.
