BOIXADOS, Roxana  y  STARICCO, María Victoria. Villas nuevas y antiguos señoríos: Tierras en disputa en el valle de Guandacol, La Rioja a fines del siglo XVIII. Mem. am. [online]. 2017, vol.25, n.2, pp.148-167. ISSN 1851-3751.

This article analyzes the conflictive context in which the foundation of Guandacol Villa was developed, located west of La Rioja jurisdiction from 1783. A group of families promoted the above mentioned foundation to get rid of their status as tenants of the Mayorazgo de Sañogasta defying the lordly power. The impulse given by the Bourbon Reforms to the creation of new villas acted as a frame, so the colonial authorities supported each party alternatively in order to benefit the crown interests focused in the mining activity.

Palabras clave : Foundation of villages; Land conflicts; Guandacol, La Rioja; 18^th century.
