The central argument of this paper is that the dominant groups make up their long-term power and that apart from the use of various strategies to increase material wealth, symbolic power also plays a dominant role, which can be found in the forms in which they agree their marriages, alliances, the mystification of their members, charitable practices, among others.

El argumento central de esta exposición consiste en que los grupos dominantes conforman su poder a largo plazo y que, aparte del uso de diversas estrategias para acrecentar la riqueza material, también juega un papel dominante el poder simbólico, el cual se puede encontrar en las formas en que pactan sus matrimonios, alianzas, la mistificación de sus miembros, las prácticas caritativas, entre otros. Todo esto les permite acumular prestigio, a la vez que intentan legitimar el poder acumulado ante rivales y las clases subalternas. Por último, esta investigación se realizó retomando fuentes de archivos, notas hemerográficas, biografías y notas luctuosas.Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica2020-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionartículo originalhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdftext/htmlapplication/epub+ziphttps://www.revistas.una.ac.cr/index.php/historia/article/view/1375210.15359/rh.81.3Revista de historia; No. 81 (2020): Revista de Historia N° 81 (enero-junio, 2020); 67-101Revista de historia.; Núm. 81 (2020): Revista de Historia N° 81 (enero-junio, 2020); 67-101Jornal de História; n. 81 (2020): Revista de Historia N° 81 (enero-junio, 2020); 67-1012215-47441012-9790reponame:Portal de Revistas UNAinstname:Universidad Nacional de Costa Ricainstacron:UNAspahttps://www.revistas.una.ac.cr/index.php/historia/article/view/13752/19263https://www.revistas.una.ac.cr/index.php/historia/article/view/13752/19264https://www.revistas.una.ac.cr/index.php/historia/article/view/13752/19265acceso abiertohttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2021-03-15T23:18:43Zoai:www.revistas.una.ac.cr:article/13752Portal de revistashttp://revistas.una.ac.cr/Universidadhttp://www.una.ac.crhttps://revistas.una.ac.cr/index.php/index/oaiandrea.mora.campos@una.crCosta RicaNo aplicaNo aplicaNo aplicaopendoar:2021-03-15T23:18:43Portal de Revistas UNA - Universidad Nacional de Costa Ricafalse
