The invaders knew how to manipulate the interethnic struggles and took adventage of the horror caused by epidemics and the attacks of slave hunters. Besides, they used a strict division of functions. While militaries applied violent repression severly punishing those found guilty in acts of resistance. Jesuits offered forgiveness, reconciliation and peace and were always careful not to appear identified with violent measures. Indian attempts to defend themselves of being submitted just accelerated their advance. However, the structural basis that would strongly influence the development of missional communities, causing some problems to the Spaniards, were settled in this phase.  Las misones jesuitas del noroeste de la Nueva España fueron el resultado de una hábil interacción y colaboración entre las fuerzas armadas del sistema colonial español y los misioneros. Los invasores sabían manipular las peleas interétnicas y sacar provecho del horror que causaban, las epidemias y las incursiones de cazadores de esclavos. Además usaban una estricta división de funciones; mientras los militares aplicaban medidas de represión violenta y castigaban con mano dura a los culpables en actos de resistencia, los jesuitas ofercían el perdón, la reconciliación y la paz y cuidaban siempre de no aparecer inmiscuidos en el ejercicio de la violencia. Los intentos de los indígenas por defenderse a ser sometidos solo aceleraban su avance. No obstante, ya en esta fase se sentaban las bases estructurales que, en adelante, influirían sensiblemente en la formación de las comunidades misionales y causarían no pocos problemas a los españoles.  As missões jesuítas no noroeste da Nova Espanha foram o resultado da hábil interação e colaboração entre as forças armadas do sistema colonial espanhol e os missionários. Os invasores sabiam como manipular conflitos interétnicos e capitalizar o horror que causavam, incluindo epidemias e invasões de escravagistas. Eles também mantinham uma rígida divisão de funções; enquanto os militares aplicavam repressão violenta e puniam severamente os culpados de atos de resistência, os jesuítas ofereciam perdão, reconciliação e paz, sempre tomando cuidado para não parecerem envolvidos no exercício da violência. As tentativas dos indígenas de se defenderem da subjugação apenas aceleraram seu avanço. No entanto, já nessa fase, estavam sendo lançadas as bases estruturais que, a partir de então, influenciariam significativamente a formação de comunidades missionárias e causariam não poucos problemas para os espanhóis. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/MA/article/view/13555 spa Sección Etnohistoria, Instituto de Ciencias Antropológicas.
