摘要:The emergence of the new taxation –of the Crown, the cities and the kingdom– was undoubtedly one of the main political and economic transformations of the late Middle Ages. With taxes a consolidated public debt appeared, which in the Crown of Aragon developed by means of censals, a financial instrument similar to the French rentes constituées or English perpetual annuities. On the basis of the case of Valencia, an attempt can be made to estimate the amount of income generated by public debt in the region and how it was distributed from the geographical and social perspective. Thus, this article studies at what levels of the urban network these resources were concentrated and which social groups were their main beneficiaries, with special attention being paid to the nobility, who found in this form of income a supplement to declining or insufficient feudal rents at a time of social restructuring.
