Abstract

The aim of this dissertation is to study the performance of a public municipal finance, specifically that of Cervera, in his full running, with the purpose of studying the organization and the weight of the tax burden, and also their evolution. The municipal debt deserves a special concern, due to the growing requests of the royalty and to the common needs, particularly wheat supply and the building and restoration of the walls. In the development of Cerveras finances, it is possible to point out three moments: first (1387-1413), the breakdown of the tax system, established in the 14th century; secondly (1413-1462), the failed reforms and internal fights among the members of the town council; and finally (1462-1516), the wide decay of the population and tax reappraisal.
