Summary Francisco A. Eissa-Barroso's 'The Spanish Monarchy and the Creation of the Viceroyalty of New Granada (1717-1739)' argues that the pace and character of the most salient Bourbon reform introduced in Spanish America during the early eighteenth century was determined not only by relations between New Granadan elites and authorities in Spain, but also by connections between different parts of the empire and the impact of European geopolitical configurations. At the same time, the book stresses the hierarchical and asymmetrical nature of interactions across the empire and the importance of changes affecting the central administration of the monarchy. Voices from across the Spanish world influencing reform reached Madrid, but they were often manipulated to the benefit of competing factions at court.
