Their ample representation in the council's large governing assembly, which both acted as an electoral college and supplied the eligible members of legal courts, went hand in hand with the involvement of the same individuals and households in the economic management of municipalities. Thus they became major beneficiaries of wages derived from office holding and revenues obtained through purchasing census-based debt, tax leases and subsidies granted in order to support grain imports to fill the town granaries. Personal data drawn from the accounting records in the city of Valencia during the financial year 1411-1412 (and more particularly from exchange rate tables in the municipal banking system) provide evidence regarding the full involvement of the numerous local town councillors in the municipality's political and financial management. So much so indeed, that it becomes possible to posit an equation between the town's political class and the urban community as collectively enshrined by local law and fully characterized by this dual aspect of their activity.El análisis detallado de la gestión política y económica del municipio medieval en la Baja Edad Media permite comprobar cómo el ejercicio del poder en manos de la oligarquía se sostiene en una amplia base social o elite. El elevado número de participantes en la amplia asamblea de gobierno del concejo, como colegio electoral y a la vez de elegibles en las magistraturas, se sincroniza con la participación de los mismos personajes y familias en la gestión económica del municipio, beneficiados con los salarios derivados del ejercicio de cargos, con la compra de deuda censal, con el arrendamiento de impuestos ciudadanos y con la percepción de subvenciones para importar grano al silo ciudadano. Los datos personales que proporciona el registro de la contabilidad de la ciudad de Valencia, a través de su tabla de cambio o banca municipal en el ejercicio económico 1411-1412, permiten comprobar la completa implicación de los numerosos consejeros de la asamblea ciudadana en la gestión política y económica del municipio, hasta el punto de poder identificar a la sociedad política local con la comunidad urbana, amparada como grupo por la legislación foral, e identificada de forma plena gracias a esta doble faceta de su actividad.Ediciones Universidad de Valladolid2013info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://uvadoc.uva.es/handle/10324/11590reponame:UVaDOC.
