Local public administrations and means of transport during the Restoration. The case of the Provincial Diputation of Guipúzcoa
Abstract
After the abolition of the Fueros and the signing of the Economic Agreements –the so-called conciertos económicos-, Basque Diputaciones differed from the rest of their Spanish counterparts in their fiscal powers. Supported by the conciertos, they could set up their own taxation system and invest in those areas, such as transportation, they thought more relevant for the development of the Basque Provinces and the interests of the social group then in power: the bourgeoisie. In this article we focus on the case of the Diputación Provincial de Guipúzcoa in the years of the Restoration.
