Eficiencia, ¿qué eficiencia? Gremios y desarrollo urbano en Barcelona, 1814-1855

Abstract

En la víspera de prohibición de los gremios, hacia 1836, las corporaciones de Barcelona se encontraban en plena expansión. Las nuevas industrias modernas se desarrollaban y la ciudad crecía de forma constante. Manufacturas nuevas y tradicionales convivían en el espacio urbano y los artesanos continuaban apegados a sus modos tradicionales de producir donde los intereses del grupo, expresados en los gremios, estaban por encima de los individuales. Las estrategias adaptativas menestrales estaban dotadas de racionalidad pero no encajan en la estrecha definición de eficiencia económica aplicada por los estudios actuales. Por ello, este escrito pretende poner en cuestión la supuesta deficiencia del modelo gremial mediante el análisis de las prácticas artesanas, particularmente las referidas a la apertura y reproducción de los oficios, pero sobre todo intenta ampliar el concepto de eficiencia más allá del reducido marco del taller para destacar el importante y activo papel del artesanado gremial en el desarrollo general de la ciudad.

In the eve of craft-guilds prohibition, in 1836, Barcelona corporations were expanding. Modern and traditional industries were developing and the city grew constantly. New and traditional manufactures lived together in the urban space and artisans kept their traditional ways of production where the group interests, expressed by guilds, prevailed over the individual ones. Adaptative strategies carried out by artisans were characterized by rationality but did not fit in the narrow definition of efficiency applied by modern economic studies. Therefore, the current paper discusses the supposed inefficiency of guilds patterns. It analyzes artisan practices like the opening up and the reproduction of trades. The paper aims at broadening the concept of efficiency beyond the workshop in order to highlight the active and relevant role of the guilded artisans in the general growth of the city.
