ESCANDON BOLANOS, Patricia. Secularization of local power: Notables against Queretaro friars, 1650-1700. Estud. hist. novohisp [online]. 2014, n.50, pp.77-124. ISSN 2448-6922.
Queretaro was founded in the first third of the Sixteenth Century as Indian village and Franciscan doctrine; by mid-Seventeenth Century it had reached a flourishing economic growth and had become a thriving Spanish neighborhood. The steering role in social, political, and (to a certain extent) economic matters that the friars had played from the beginning was contested and eventually won by a new and powerful local oligarchy that also changed Queretaro's status, from town to city and gave it a formal Council. The purpose of this paper is to provide an account of the process.
