It aims to shed light on how upper social classes arranged strategies to maintain their political and economic status. Rivalry and disputes between old factions and families were attached to the control and exercise of power. Blood, land management and honour were the main elements in these disputes. Honour, service to the Crown, participation in the conquest and ?pure? blood (Catholic affiliation) were the main features of Spanish nobility. This book analyses the origins of the entailed-estate (mayorazgo) from medieval times to early modern period, as the main element that enables us to understand the socio-economic behaviour of these families over generations. This longue durée chronology within the Braudelian methodology of the research aims to show how strategies and family networks changed over time, demonstrating a micro-history study of daily life. 517 $aBlood, Land and Power 606 $aSpain$2bicssc 606 $ac 1500 to c 1600$2bicssc 606 $ac 1600 to c 1700$2bicssc 606 $ac 1700 to c 1800$2bicssc 606 $ac 1800 to c 1900$2bicssc 606 $aEuropean history$2bicssc 606 $aSocial classes$2bicssc 610 $aIberian and Latin American Studies;Spanish history;Spanish nobility;social classes;lineage 615 7$aSpain 615 7$ac 1500 to c 1600 615 7$ac 1600 to c 1700 615 7$ac 1700 to c 1800 615 7$ac 1800 to c 1900 615 7$aEuropean history 615 7$aSocial classes 700 $aPerez-Garcia$b Manuel$4auth$0849963 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910476756403321 996 $aBlood, Land and Power$93019539 997 $aUNINA
