• Resumen

  • This article analyzes the attitude of the consulado of Veracruz in a period of economic and political changes both in Spain and America, between 1808 and 1817. The analysis of Spanish economic policies towards colonial commerce and the response given to these measures by the consulado allows us a look into the complex sphere of Atlantic networks, where every single political and economic decision generated echoes on both sides of the ocean. Using the informes of the secretary of the consulado, José María Quiros, as a basis, we analyze the discourse within this institution over ardent questions of that period, most importantly the antagonism between free commerce and protectionism. Through this analysis, we are able to trace which interests and ideal s the different political and economic positions within the consulado responded to.
