Description
Summary:This paper examines an innovative reform proposal for the Spanish American trade presented in 1711 by the Novohispanic Viceroy, Duque de Linares. The proposal was created in a period when the traditional fleet and galleon regime was in crisis and smuggling was a usual phenomenon in America. This work seeks to demonstrate that Linares’s proposal represented a greater centralizing power of the Novohispanic space within the imperial arrangement. Based on the analysis of the commercial proposal, we will seek to understand the functions and roles played in that new mercantile map by the more significant spaces or nodes of the Spanish Empire:Spain,Mexico andPeru.
