dc.description.abstract	Un estudio de caso sobre el gremio de pelaires de la ciudad de Estella-Lizarra (Navarra) entre los siglos XVI y XIX sirve para discutir algunos juicios emitidos sobre estas instituciones de acción colectiva, en particular, su caracterización como monopolio. Se propone complementar el tradicional enfoque desde fuera, que toma al gremio como un agente unitario, con una perspectiva desde dentro, que permita observar las tensiones entre el interés del colectivo y el de los individuos que lo componen. Se toma como eje del relato el manejo colectivo de los bienes comunes (batán y tinte) hasta su pérdida en 1758, así como las relaciones con el capital mercantil, encarnado en un gran prestamista y una nueva fábrica. La crisis de este gremio tuvo su origen en las dificultades inherentes a la gestión financiera comunitaria y en la pérdida de capital social.	es_ES
dc.description.abstract	A case study of the wool carders’ guild in Estella-Lizarra (Navarre) from the 16th to 19thcenturies questions prevalent opinions among historians, which have tended to define these collective action institutions as monopolies. This study complements the traditional “outside-in” approach that considers the guild to be a monolithic agent, adopting an inside perspective that reveals tensions between collective and individual interests. The research focuses on the collec-tive management of common properties (fulling-mill and dyeing house) until their disappear-ance in 1758, and guild relations with commercial capital in the form of a major financial spon-sor and a new factory. Difficulties associated with the guild’s financial management and the loss of its social capital lay at the heart of its troubles.	en
