Under these policies, petitioners could change their race by buying “thanks to take” certificates, fueling later fearmongering about a “pardocracy.” A Secret Report by two members of a “geodesic mission” drove these policies, which John Lynch analyzed as a bureaucratic “second conquest.” A tobacco monopoly imposed as part of these policies prompted Manuela Beltrán to tear up a sales tax edict in Socorro, kicking off the non-Iberian Comunero Revolt.
