RUBIO-HERNANDEZ, Alfonso. The Configuration of Time in the Real Provisión. A Function of Synthesis and Orientation. Hist. Soc. [online]. 2019, n.37, pp.102-120.  Epub Oct 10, 2019. ISSN 0121-8417.  https://doi.org/10.15446/hys.n37.77038.

The late work of Norbert Elias, An Essay on Time, composed of several writings that try to explain from a sociological theory of time the relationship between experience and thought as parts of a single process, helps us to think about how the configuration of time in a documentary model issued in the name of the King, the Real Provisión, exercises a function of synthesis and guidance thwroughout its composition. With the structural guide of a specific 18th century Real Provisión century that is kept in the Historical Archive of Cali (Colombia), we try to relate the administrative procedure through which concrete facts are incorporated in the document, product of the social relations around a certain issue, with a succession of chronological moments that determine them.

Keywords : Real Provisión; 16^th-18^th centuries; time; Norbert Elias.
