Case analysis regarding inheritance Conflictos intrafamiliares en el seno de la élite santafesina tardo-colonial. Análisis de casos relacionados con la herencia Scarafia, Inés Giletta, Carina Vecari, Silvina Sociedad colonial familia herencia conflicto The purpose of this paper is to analyze, in the context of the city of Santa Fe and its area of influence during the late-colonial period, domestic conflicts motivated by issues related to inheritance, especially those raised by claims of natural children unrecognized by their parents. In this sense, illegitimate children could stain the honor of a family or of a whole generation, as this could have implications for all members as to question the nobility, limit bridal alternatives, slowing access to bureaucracy or Church, divide the distribution of inheritance. However, through the analysis of the sources, it was observed that in the society of Santa Fe these natural children put into action various strategies to access the recognition and thus be benefited by heredity. It is clear that the control system had some flexibility to cover contingencies, since laws or regulations were solved pragmatically, giving priority to the unwritten law of honor to whom honor is due. El propósito del trabajo es analizar, en el contexto de la ciudad de Santa Fe y su área de influencia durante el período tardo-colonial, los conflictos intrafamiliares motivados por cuestiones relacionadas con la herencia, en forma especial, los suscitados por reclamos de hijos naturales no reconocidos por sus progenitores. En este sentido, los hijos ilegítimos podían manchar el honor de una familia o de todo un linaje, dado que ello podía tener consecuencias para todos los miembros, como poner en duda la hidalguía, limitar alternativas nupciales, frenar el acceso a la burocracia o la Iglesia, dividir el reparto de la herencia, etc. No obstante, en la sociedad santafesina a través de los conflictos analizados en las fuentes, se pudo observar que estos hijos naturales ponían en acción diversas estrategias para acceder al reconocimiento y así poder ser beneficiados por la herencia. Es evidente que el sistema de control contaba con cierta flexibilidad para cubrir las contingencias, ya que pese a las leyes o normas se resolvía pragmáticamente, primando la ley no escrita de honor a quien honor merece.  Facultad de Filosofía y Humanidades.
