The introduction of intendants into 18th-century Spain by the new Bourbon dynasty, although it was an important element in its centralizing advance, it also involved numerous conflicts of powers with the old territorial authorities. A reality that was also present in the Intendancy of the New Settlements of Sierra Morena and Andalusia at the end of that century and the beginning of the next through the problems raised between the intendant, and his subdelegate in La Carlota, and the existing mayors in this jurisdiction. In this paper, therefore, we will analyze the origin of these disputes, how they took shape in the day-to-day life of that jurisdiction and what was the government intervention to remedy them; with this we will contribute to a better understanding of the problems caused by the implementation of this new emploiment. © 2021 Ediciones Universitarias de Valparaiso.
