El rol social de un contrato económico. Crédito notariado y recursos relacionales en Buenos Aires, siglo XVII Wasserman, Martín credit networks contracts 17th century crédito redes contratos siglo XVII By the first half of the seventeenth century, Buenos Aires was experiencing the process of its local social integration and was joining into the various commercial circuits, which transformed its economic life. It was deeply studied the way in which social networks, built on trust and loyalty, offered an organizational framework to businesses within the local elite in this marginal (and central at one time) port in the Hispanic American Old Regime. Therefore, the presence of notarized credit contracts represents a problem to investigate. Which was the role and significance of this formal mechanism into such a network context? We try to get an answer to this question by contrasting the relationships of formal credit with ritual kinship ties, through the trajectory built by one of the major creditors. Hacia la primera mitad del siglo XVII, Buenos Aires atravesaba los procesos de su integración social local y de su incorporación a los distintos circuitos comerciales, que rápidamente dinamizaron su vida económica. Paraje tan marginal como central en la Hispanoamérica de Antiguo Régimen, ha sido profundamente estudiado el modo en que las redes de relaciones interpersonales, fundadas en confianzas y lealtades, ofrecían un marco organizacional a los negocios en el seno de la élite local. La presencia de contratos de crédito formalizados ante el escribano público y de Cabildo se nos representa, por ello, como un problema a indagar. ¿Cuál era el rol y significado de este mecanismo formal en un contexto reticularmente dispuesto? Intentaremos obtener una respuesta a este interrogante mediante la contrastación entre el universo crediticio formal y el conjunto de lazos parentales construidos por uno de los principales acreedores.
