Abstract

The objective of this article is to discern the economic weight of free-men families in a colonial, exporter and slave economy. We will try to demonstrate the free families’ importance for Carioca’s sugar mills’ survival, which defended strong social and economic differences. However, this inequality did not include spatial segregation.
