In writing The People of Quito I wished to break away from the established pattern of regional studies of colonial Spanish America (still largely polarized between White elites and the Indian peasantry) with a study of the social history of colonial Quito rooted in the experience of its lower strata. Although my use of the term "people" (perhaps influenced by European studies such as Daniel Roche's Le Peuple de Paris ) was therefore primarily intended to evoke non-elite social groups, the book was given a broadly based form so as to be able to contribute to our understanding of Quiteo society as a whole.

Its geographical scope is that of urban Quito, a vertical terrain hemmed in by mountains and divided by ravines, which proved to have played its own hidden role in shaping the city's social geography. I have tried to take account of the urban center's close interaction with its rural hinterland, and place this evidence in the broader context of the Audiencia of Quito (the administrative forerunner of the modern Republic of Ecuador). One of the corollaries of my use of "Braudelian time" (combining the study of geographical factors, long-term structural change and vnementielle history) is that the dates in the title are essentially there as a flag of convenience; the continuities and structural features of Quito society call, I think, for long-term comparative analysis. As for the subtitle "Change and Unrest in the Underclass," this was not intended to provide an exhaustive description of the contents, but rather to highlight the dynamic dimension of the tensions generated by economic change and Bourbon fiscal reform in the late-colonial period.
