Oposición fiscal y reivindicaciones políticas: La revuelta de Peñíscola de 1715
Abstract
The reorganization of taxation within the territory under the Crown of Aragon, which was undertaken alfter the War of Succession, was performed at a period of economic difficulties and coincided with radical political change. It was therefore not unopposed. The study of the Peñiscola Revolt in 1715 is important for three main reasons: the opposition to taxation which fuelled it; the demands for a retum to the municipal organization of the period of the "fuero"; and the fact that it arose in one of the Valencian towns which had proved most loyal to Philip V during the War of Succession
