    Este artículo busca expandir los temas de este dossier monográfico al considerar las estrategias mediante las cuales los municipios gobernados por cristianos buscaron influir en la formulación de políticas administrativas reales que gobernaban a los no cristianos en el siglo XIV tardío.

With provisional proposals for an officiant-based system having been put forward by the Law Commission, i…
