Popis: We use the Public Good (Power) Index and the Public Value to rank the marriages of business relations of 15 elite families in fifteenth century Florence—with a focus on the networks of the Medici and the taking of power by Cosimo de’ Medici. Theoretical analysis supports the outstanding position of the Medici family and explains much of its historical success.
