Abstract

The censos constitute an instrument of credit the assessment of which has been the object of numerous controversies on the part of both economists of the period and present day historians. The aim of the work here presented is to increase our knowledge of them, analyzing aspects such as geographical distribution of the lienees, the sociology of both creditors and debtors, the amounts of the loans, the mortgages against wich they were charged or their redemption. We attempt to discover their incidence in the region of La Sagra during the eighteenth century so as to arrive at conclusions wich will allow us to judge their advantages and disadvantages as a means of loan. As the main source of information we have made exhaustive use of the deposit and redemption deeds of the censos to be found in the legal protocols of the Provincial Historical Archive of Toledo.
