Açúcar e café em São Paulo: Família e estrutura domiciliar em Itu e Areias em 1829

Autoria SCIMAGO INSTITUTIONS RANKINGS

Resumo

Este ensaio examina o impacto das exportações comerciais de açúcar e café nas estruturas familiares e domésticas em dois centros de produção de São Paulo na segunda década do século XIX. Usando registros manuscritos de censos domiciliares, este estudo também explora como essas economias influenciaram a cor, o sexo, a idade, o estado civil e a situação legal dessas duas populações distintas. Em 1829, Areias e Itu estavam em dois estágios diferentes de seu desenvolvimento na produção de açúcar e café. Como essas diferenças nas condições econômicas moldaram as estruturas sociais e a vida doméstica nesses importantes centros de produção da época é o tema básico deste estudo.
