Description
Summary:There is no historical study in this country, starting from the Colony in which the evolution of social institutions is addressed, in all its dimensions. The Spanish chroniclers, and the same Bishop Cortez and Larraz Pedro Cortés y Larraz (1921) in his famous description of this part of the then province of Guatemala and in the context of his canonical visit, are the first written references that come close to the study of the institutionalist of social control and legality and in a certain way the power of the State.Then, it was the foreign chroniclers and the travelers in returning to the subject in the 19th century. But we must not forget that the European view of us since the discovery is that we are individuals and societies with "primitive" and backward remnants against capitalist societies of the North Atlantic. Social anthropology is born precisely in this type of adventure. A kind of vision of marketing espionage. No hay un estudio histórico en este país, comenzando desde la Colonia en el que se aborde, en todas sus dimensiones, la evolución de las instituciones sociales. Los cronistas españoles, y el mismo obispo Cortez y Larraz Pedro Cortés y Larraz (1921) en su célebre descripción que hizo de esta parte de la entonces provincia de Guatemala y en el marco de su visita canónica, son los primeros referentes escritos que se acercan al estudio de la institucionalidad del control social y la legalidad y en cierta forma del poder del Estado.Luego, fueron los cronistas foráneos y los viajeros en retomar el tema en el siglo XIX. Pero no hay que olvidar que la visión que tiene el europeo de nosotros desde el descubrimiento es que somos individuos y sociedades con remanentes “primitivos” y atrasados frente a sociedades capitalistas del norte atlántico. La antropología social nace precisamente en este tipo de aventura. Una especie de visión de espionaje de mercadeo.
