description The Inca Empire reorganized conquered populations in different jurisdictions imposing the decimal system over local chieftainships or curacazgos, creating new provinces or administrative units where the local authorities lost, maintained or amplified their regional power. The system of encomiendas implemented by early Hispanic conquerors instrumentalized the indigenous political organization active in Inca times as a strategy to maintain the cohesion of the social units (tributaries) that supported the economy in each repartimiento and the payment of taxes that curacas had to give annually to the encomendero. The ethnohistorical study of Tarapaca (Lat. S 19º-21º) allows us to point out crucial aspects related to Inca expansionary policy in this territory, the manipulation of inherited political structures by the Spaniards, the organization of its populations, settlements and authorities, as well as the economic structure regional in the 15th and 16th centuries, demonstrating the originality of some old research hypotheses and the degree of convergence and uniqueness of the political history of this region in the context of the South Central Andes.

El Imperio inca organizó las poblaciones conquistadas en distintas jurisdicciones regidas por el sistema decimal, transformando los antiguos curacazgos o señoríos en nuevas provincias o unidades administrativas donde las autoridades locales perdieron, mantuvieron o amplificaron su poder regional. El sistema de encomiendas implementado por los primeros conquistadores hispanos habría instrumentalizado, en ciertas regiones, la organización política vigente en los tiempos del Tawantinsuyu como una estrategia destinada a mantener la cohesión de las unidades sociales (tributarios) que sostenían la economía en cada repartimiento y el pago de tributos que cada curaca debía entregar al encomendero anualmente. El estudio etnohistórico de Tarapaca (19º-21º Lat. S) permite abordar aspectos relativos a la política expansiva cusqueña en este territorio, la manipulación hispana de las estructuras políticas heredadas, la organización de sus poblaciones, asentamientos y autoridades, y la estructura económica regional en los siglos XV y XVI, demostrando la vigencia de antiguas hipótesis de investigación y el grado de convergencia y singularidad de la historia política de esta región en el contexto de los Andes Centro Sur. 2019-06-22 2022-03-22T15:04:06Z 2022-03-22T15:04:06Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion http://revistas.ucn.cl/index.php/estudios-atacamenos/article/view/872 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/80143 spa http://revistas.ucn.cl/index.php/estudios-atacamenos/article/view/872/3155 Derechos de autor 2019 Estudios Atacameños.
