Description: "Fine political geography of central Nueva Granada (Santa Fe prov.) was originally prepared as a master's thesis. Demonstrates how changing property boundaries and land use both illustrated and activated shifts in social power relationships. For example, the dislocation of indigenous communities helped weaken the corregidores de naturales, which, in turn, facilitated the rise of other local administrators and jurisdictions and quickened the pace of miscegenation and citizenship expansion"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
