Abstract: The Evolution of Habitual System and of Functional Hierarchy of the Settlements from Lăpuş Country in the Period Comprised between the 17th Century and the First Half of 19th Century. This study is a completion of an article published in Studia UBB, Geographia, no. 1/2004 (focused upon the evolution of the settlements’ system between the 13th and 16th centuries). It approaches, in a spatial-temporal snapshot, the evolution of the settlements’ system from Lăpuş Land in the period comprised between the 17th century and the first part of 19th century. The paper has in view to highlight the existence, appearance and role of institutions and functions with a coordinating role (religious, administrative, economic, military etc.) – on the basis of the center-periphery relations – as well as their impact upon the organizing of the regional space in that period. Within this context, another aspect was spotlighted, namely the fact that this phase corresponds with the consolidation of the settlements system, of the social-economic subsystem of Lăpuş Land and of the transition towards its individualization as a open functional regional system. Thus, three distinct evolutive sub stages are to be identified: that of feudal relations’ consolidation; the maximum development of feudal relations; their decline, the prediction of capitalist values, doubled by demographical increase, at the beginning of the process. |
