This paper studies the first ten years of the Asociacion para la Reforma de los Aranceles de Aduanas, from its formation to its dissolution in 1869. Through a rigorous examination of its publications and of references to it in the contemporary press, we reconstruct its regular meetings, conferences and proposals on customs reform. As a first result, we illustrate the singularity of the Asociacion, which was more than a mere transposition of the Free-Trade Congress of Brussels in 1856. Secondly, we call into question the traditional vision of an Asociacion where different political parties live in harmony. Finally, we show how the temporary disappearance of the Asociacion in 1869 was not caused by its satisfaction with the Figuerola bill but rather by the division that this bill created among the supporters of free-trade because of its gradualism and fiscal duties.

This paper presents an overview of the findings in current research on innovativeness and reception of foreign technology in a peripheral country such as Spain. To that effect, patents held in place for more than ten years had been use as an indicator. These patents —whether by its value or quality— provide a more accurate view on innovation. A detailed analysis of patent records still a relevant source not only to deep delve into the role of the patent system but also to the characteristics and peculiarities of the technical progress of innovation in outlying countries. Moreover, the article seeks to explore the forerunners of this process as well as the dynamics involved in the patent renewal. As strategies and capabilities of both independent inventors and companies follow a different path, they had been consider separately.

Having been a relatively modest partner in the Penibetica mining boom of 19th century that was based on lead ores and small scale production, mining in the Sierra de Lujar was, during a large part of the second half of 20th, a matter of one of the leading companies in the field as Penarroya. Regarding this last phase, this paper focuses on company «management» of labour, related to its production strategies in specific geological conditions and socioeconomic context. In interaction with this, analysis also looks at workers answers and emphasizes about the dynamic of reciprocal adaptations which is revealed by the evolution of working conditions, its changes and continuities. Better times for miners came quite late and were short-lived. Case study extends to the very recent past historian’s reflection on the role of mining industry in contemporaneous Spain «development».
在19世纪以铅矿石和小规模生产为基础的Penibetica采矿业繁荣中，Penarroya一直是一个相对温和的合作伙伴，在20世纪下半叶的大部分时间里，Sierra de Lujar的采矿是该领域领先公司之一Penarroya的事情。关于这最后一个阶段，本文侧重于公司的劳动力“管理”，涉及其在特定地质条件和社会经济背景下的生产策略。与此相互作用，分析还着眼于工人的回答，并强调通过工作条件的演变，其变化和连续性所揭示的相互适应的动态。矿工的好日子来得很晚，而且很短暂。案例研究延伸到最近的过去的历史学家对采矿业在当代西班牙“发展”中的作用的反思。

The present article studies the Sino-Spanish trade between 1900 and 1930, through the annual reports of the Chinese Maritime Customs. This institution was one of the mainstays of the treaty port system, and its archives contain information about the Sino-Spanish trade and the Spanish population that lived in China, as well as their economic activities. Its function was to guarantee the conditions of free trade that China had signed with the foreign powers. However, despite the Spanish presence and the participation of this community in the custom service, the Sino-Spanish trade remained weak and with a negative balance for Spain. This article aims to explain the characteristics of the Spanish community in China and the reasons of the weakness of the Sino-Spanish trade.

Economic change is concentrated in small territorial units —cities or counties— before spreading to the immediate space. This article aims to point out the relationship between space and economic development, from the concept of territory of progress. We understand that «territories of progress» are those spaces which assimilate organizational patterns, technological trends and trade patterns of the most advanced regions in a particular historical moment. The case study is Andalusia, a region of southwestern Europe, between 1886 and 1959. First, we locate the economic activity in local business systems. Subsequently, we identified those business systems became territories of progress, using indicators of network theory. The research, based on information from the Commercial Registers, concludes that in Andalusia, during the period studied, there were few areas of progress, which conditioned the economic performance of the region.

A pesar de que la historiografia suele situar en la Revolucion Industrial los origenes de la explotacion infantil a gran escala, el estudio de algunas modalidades de trabajo infantil en las sociedades preindustriales abre un nuevo campo de perspectivas y posibilidades pocas veces contempladas. Este articulo analiza el trabajo infantil en la indianeria barcelonesa del setecientos y muestra como algunas de las «rupturas» atribuidas a la Revolucion Industrial, en realidad, ya habian comenzado a fraguarse mucho antes en dicha industria manufacturera. Para ello, hemos recurrido a las listas salariales de las empresas del sector, la correspondencia fabril, las estadisticas oficiales, los tratados tecnicos y la prensa. Los resultados obtenidos muestran que la gran flexibilidad del trabajo infantil fue el principal reclamo para una demanda cuyas necesidades eran cambiantes y diversas. Otros aspectos, como las buenas expectativas de formacion y la contribucion en las economias domesticas, muy alejada del pocket money, fueron otras de las causas principales del trabajo infantil en la indianeria.

Bancassurance is understood as the relationship between a bank and an insurance company that decide to support each other by the fact that both carried out financial activities. It is a very important phenomenon in the Spanish financial history, where banks have dominated the scene with the formation of large groups with subsidiaries in the industry and the financial services. The bank-industry relationship has earned much attention, but the bancassurance relationship has never been studied in depth. This work analyzes, with archival sources, the Hispano-Estrella case, i.e., the relationship established between the Banco Hispano Americano, which led its ranking for many years, and La Estrella, an insurance company that at times was second in its ranking. This study of a relevant and protracted (more than 90 years) case and helps to understand how the bancassurance limited the development of the Spanish insurance, because the strategy of the bank (the strong partner) always tended to be imposed on that of the insurance company (the weak partner).

Este articulo presenta por primera vez una estimacion de la rentabilidad financiera de la banca andorrana desde sus inicios hasta 2007. A traves del analisis de las principales magnitudes bancarias esta investigacion plantea que la plaza financiera andorrana actuo como refugio de capitales extranjeros en epocas de inestabilidad economica. Una vez cubiertas las necesidades financieras domesticas, el excedente de capital se transfirio al mercado internacional, haciendo posible la obtencion de mayores rentabilidades. El estudio de esta nueva fuente cuantitativa permite un primer contraste acerca de la relacion entre estructura de mercado y resultados obtenidos. Las evidencias sugieren que los acuerdos de colusion, mas que la eficiencia, impulsaron la rentabilidad del sector a largo plazo.

El presente articulo trata la historia de las minas de Riotinto desde su adquisicion por el capital espanol en 1954 hasta su cierre en 2003; medio siglo en el que la mina conocio diversos propietarios nacionales y extranjeros que afrontaron problemas tecnicos, financieros y laborales para poner en el mercado piritas, cobre, oro y plata en un proceso de acelerada extraccion, agotamiento de los recursos y caida de precios, en el marco de una economia espanola y mundial crecientemente globalizadas. En el presente articulo se analizan los problemas mencionados para dejar en el aire la pregunta sobre el destino de los distritos mineros que no han tenido la oportunidad de diversificar sus economias, dejando un panorama de fuerte impacto medioambiental y desertizacion productiva y humana.
