Postal system was an essential tool to link different territories in a global space in the early modern history. In the eighteenth century, European monarchies were interested in changing the postal service to enhance the overseas communications and to exercise more effective government in their colonies. In the Spanish Monarchy, in the mid-eighteenth century, under the government of Charles III, was promoted a postal reform plan where the Crown wanted to manage and organize the maritime mails between Spain and America in order to exercise more direct control in the Latin American dominions. This article examines the project of reform of the postal system that the Bourbon monarchy planned from 1764 through 1765. The article shows how these projects of the reform, especially the postal system, had resistances not only in Peninsula but also in the Latin American territories. The findings of this research illustrate the importance of the role of the postal service for the government of the overseas empires and the limitations of their reform plans in the enlightenment. |
