IBERIAN PATRONAGES | The Royal Patronages in a global perspective. Governance, spiritual jurisdiction and resistances in the Iberian Empires, 1622-1738

Summary
The IBERIAN PATRONAGES project will be focused on the development of an in-depth study of the impact that the creation of the Sacred Congregation ‘De Propaganda Fide’ has had on the regime of the Iberian Patronages. Guided by this goal, this innovative research will decisively contribute to the strengthening of Europe in R&I delivering important contributions to the comprehension of four crucial issues that integrate the investigation: the intimate and structural relationship between religious dimension and the dynamics of domination, control and assimilation of local populations; the resistances and transformations imposed by these populations in response to the directions emitted from Europe; the jurisdictional nature of the policies formulated by the Iberian Monarchies to defend their royal patronages; and the key role played by religion in the configuration of colonial societies.

The research will be anchored in the work developed in historical archives and libraries in Portugal, Spain and Italy, in a permanent exchange of ideas with the supervisor and the host institution (CHAM - Centre for the Humanities), and in an advanced training program designed to enable the researcher to expand her academic networking, provide her insertion in a highly qualified scientific circuit and promote the acquisition and improvement of core competencies and skills for a successful international career plan. A secondment in the Max Planck Institute for Legal History and Legal Theory will improve the scientific knowledge of this research plan.

The strong commitment to the Open Science Practices associated with a scientific dissemination plan and plural communication activities were designed to ensure that the research will be able to reach different audiences: the scientific community, the undergraduate and graduate students, teachers and students of the basic education system and the general public.
