RESUMO

This thesis aims to analyze the performance of the Senate of Vila Rica s Chamber from 1706 to 1808 in its different dimensions: politic, social and economic dimensions. The study is directed to the political and administrative government of the officials of Vila Rica s city-council, trying to analyze the performance of this "local bureaucracy" in the changing character of temporal context mentioned. The long term perspective seeks to embrace a period, in which occurred an internal economic reorganization in Minas Gerais captaincy, while the mining acme began to recede to mercantile activities of subsistence directed to urban economy. In this period, thus, the mining activity was no longer the principal activity in Minas Gerais economy, in fact, mercantile as well as agricultural activities become its principal business. In this context, we are looking forward to establishing the existent relations between the Senate of Vila Rica s Chamber, the Crown representatives in Minas Gerais government and Metropolitan authorities. On the one side, we try to establish the political space that this institution occupied inside the Captaincy in the relations maintained with military forces, the hearers, but also with some governors or General-Captains. On the other side, we try to portray the ways of communication and negotiation direct1y established between the chamberlain and the Metropolitan State representatives, who were in Lisbon city
