Sumario:In 1794, in one of the last episodes of that century with regard to theintercolonial trade in North captaincies a royal order authorized thecommercial trafficking between producing areas of the Captaincy ofParaiba and the port of Recife, the main commercial hub of the region.The royal authorization was issued in the throes of the so-called period ofannexation (1756-99), when Paraíba was subordinated to the governmentof Pernambuco, and contradicted the plans of the then governor of Paraíba,the chief captain Jerónimo de Mello e Castro, who wished to createpolitical and economic mechanisms that allow recovering the autonomy ofthe Captaincy. Thus, the relationship between the local sphere, representedby interactions between producers and dealers in North captaincies, andthe imperial sphere, which exposed the interest of the Portuguese Crownat the end of the century, to promote intercolonial trade, will be the primeobject of this article.
