The analysis is historical-documentary, allowing for the retrieval of relevant information regarding the economic activities and networks established by the Jesuits in the study area. The research findings highlight that, despite the difficulties and constant indigenous incursions, the Jesuits managed to strengthen the local economy, establishing a second frontier in the Itata Valley. They implemented an efficient administrative system that allowed them to exert control over the territory, introduce modern agricultural techniques, and engage in economic activities such as wine production, cattle farming, and natural resource exploitation. However, the expulsion of the Jesuits in 1767 had a negative impact on the economy and educational sphere in Chile, leading to changes in the regional economic dynamics without substantial transformations in the overall economic system. El estudio se enfoca en analizar las actividades económicas desarrolladas por la Compañía de Jesús en el Valle del Itata, Chile, durante el período comprendido entre 1664 y 1767. El análisis es histórico-documental, permitiendo obtener información relevante sobre las actividades económicas y las redes que efectuaron los jesuitas en la zona de estudio. Los resultados de la investigación destacan que, a pesar de las dificultades y las constantes incursiones indígenas, los jesuitas lograron fortalecer la economía local y consolidando una segunda frontera en el Valle del Itata. Implementaron un sistema administrativo eficiente que les permitió ejercer dominio sobre el territorio, introducir técnicas modernas de agricultura y desarrollar actividades económicas como la producción de vino, la cría de ganado y la explotación de los recursos naturales. Sin embargo, la expulsión de los jesuitas en 1767 tuvo un impacto negativo en la economía y el ámbito educativo en Chile, generando cambios en la dinámica económica regional sin transformaciones sustanciales en el sistema económico general.
