Abstract
PALOMO INFANTE, María Dolores. The pueblos de indios of Chiapas during the Period of the Intendencia. 1786-1821. Some Changes in Its Political, Economic and Religious Organization. Front. hist. [online]. 2024, vol.29, n.1, pp.116-137. Epub Jan 01, 2024. ISSN 2027-4688. https://doi.org/10.22380/20274688.2563.
This paper analyzes the historical processes of the pueblos de indios during the Intendancy period in Chiapas, reflecting on the results of the implementation of new policies arising from the Bourbon reforms and examining how the changes caused by these were experienced. For this purpose, an analysis has been conducted on some aspects of the political, economic, and religious life of the communities, such as the tax system, social and territorial issues, indigenous authorities, and the presence of sub-delegates in the brotherhoods. The results of this article contribute to the understanding of the Bourbon reforms, from a social history approach focused on the life of the indigenous communities, an aspect that has been the most neglected by historiography on the period.
Keywords : political and economic organization; religious institutions; ladinization; subdelegates; councils; taxes.
