We will examine practices of dependency and their relation with the social and economic differences found in Leonese communities through the study of local by-laws (fueros) and charters from ecclesiastical archives. Then, we will question the role played by these “sub-dependency” relations within local communities and their inclusion in royal, lay or ecclesiastical lordship.

El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo analizar las relaciones de dependencia que vinculaban a los sectores enriquecidos de las comunidades, las llamadas élites rurales, con sus trabajadores en el espacio leonés en los siglos centrales de la Edad Media. A través del estudio de textos forales y de los diplomas contenidos en las colecciones documentales de las instituciones eclesiásticas, se describen las formas que adoptó esta dependencia y su vinculación con las diferencias de riqueza observadas en las comunidades de León. A continuación, se problematiza el lugar de estas relaciones de “subdependencia” en el marco de las comunidades locales y su inserción en el señorío laico, eclesiástico y regio. Este examen permite observar la intersección de diferentes formas de explotación del trabajo y la desigualdad material dentro de las comunidades contribuyendo a una comprensión más compleja de la sociedad medieval.
