| Summary: | Conflict and negotiation were the paths that led to the articulation of the diverse corporations that made up society in the Spanish Empire from the 16th to 18th centuries, each with its own privileges and obligations. When the Bourbon Reforms were implemented in the late 18th century to rationalize the administration of the Empire and its overseas territories, new tensions grew between the Crown’s representatives and local populations, but cartography emerged as an efficient tool for transmitting the arguments of those localities and their power groups to the ecclesiastical hierarchy and other representatives of the Crown. This article analyzes the use of those new forms forrepresenting territory within the process of delimiting parishes in the Bishopric of Guadalajara the latter’s purpose was to comply with Royal orders to reduce the great distances that often separated parish seats from the populations they served. |
