Summary: | In spite of the well-known importance of written norms and administrative structures in the Society of Jesus, there are only a few specialized studies of these subjects. A very general concept of a monolithic and centralized religious order is prevalent. But when administrative practices and internal communication are analyzed thoroughly, it becomes clear that Jesuit structures were based on consultative guilds which took part in decision-making processes. Among the least investigated administrative topics, the freedom of action of provincial congregations is most surprising. === A pesar de la importancia notoria de las normas escritas y de las estructuras administrativas en la Compañía de Jesús, hay muy pocos estudios específicos sobre estos aspectos. Predomina una visión muy general de una Orden monolítica y centralizada. Sin embargo, al analizar la práctica administrativa y las comunicaciones internas, se puede ver que la estructura de la Compañía de Jesús se basa en gremios consultivos que participan en los procesos de toma de decisiones. Entre los temas administrativos menos trabajados, sobresalen lasfranjas de libertad de las congregaciones provinciales. |
