About This Book

El ensayo combina investigación de campo y fuentes bibliográficas para trazar la génesis, el funcionamiento y la política de la organización religiosa que implantó comunidades en la región de las Misiones y el Paraguay. Describe el paisaje, las ruinas y los materiales arqueológicos, reconstruye la estructura administrativa, económica y social de las reducciones, y examina la relación entre la orden y el poder colonial. Textos y planos ilustrativos acompañan un juicio crítico sobre la expansión del sistema, sus tensiones internas y las causas de su transformación y eventual desaparición.
