Abstract
NIEVES, Elienahí. The Donation of New Spain Landowners for Financing the Spanish Succession War, 1709-1716. Am. Lat. Hist. Econ [online]. 2021, vol.28, n.3, e1223. Epub Oct 04, 2021. ISSN 2007-3496. https://doi.org/10.18232/alhe.1223.
This work studies the donation that was requested in 1709 exclusively to the owners of productive properties in New Spain, in order to help with the expenses of the Spanish Succession war. The strategy used to request resources from that specific group is analyzed, as well as the results obtained. Likewise, it describes the tasks that the local authorities carried out to collect the contributions. The negotiation went through each stage of this collection and allowed those involved to obtain or avoid what was in their interests, as the case may be.
Keywords : donations; Spanish Succession war; landowners; extraordinary taxation.
