Abstract
RUBIO, Alfonso. Documentary Inventories in the Colonial Cabildo of Medellín. A Rationalization Process Towards the ''Good Governance''. Rev. Interam. Bibliot [online]. 2013, vol.36, n.2, pp.125-138. ISSN 0120-0976.
We focus since an academic field not much explored: the ''Archivistic History''. After a thorough survey and analysis of the documentation containing in the Historical Archive of Medellín, precisely in its fund called Cabildo, we show the concerns and needs of the colonial cabildo of Medellín by the organization and description of the documents in his archive through documentary inventories directed to ''good governance'', as claimed by the own documentation of the institution. The archive and the inventory construction that describe his documentary units, as part of administration and information Monarchic system, who should control the economics, socials and juridical issues, show us that the information is a strong factor of cohesion and permanence of all system, understanding that the information system is , in essence, a regulation and homogenization structure.
