Abstract in Portuguese
O objeto deste trabalho é a atuação dos agentes mercantis na cidade de São Paulo no período compreendido entre 1711 e 1765. Figuras centrais para o abastecimento da população, para a articulação da urbe com outras regiões coloniais e com a metrópole, e para a concorrência com a elite agrária nas posições de mando, eles são uma chave para o entendimento da dinâmica sócio-econômica de Piratininga setecentista. Para estudá-los, primeiramente, foram pesquisados os ramos de negócios a que se dedicavam, as mercadorias envolvidas nas transações comerciais, os espaços por onde circulavam homens e carregações, as atividades que propiciaram o acúmulo de fortunas. Como, no mundo colonial, riqueza e prestígio eram requisitos necessários para a promoção e a hierarquização de homens e valores, num segundo momento, foi analisada a participação dos comerciantes em instituições de poder local

Abstract in English
This work deals with the activities of merchants in the city of São Paulo between 1711 and 1765. Central characters in the provision of goods to the population, in the connections between the city and other regions of the colony and Portugal, and in the competition with rural elites for ruling positions, they have a key role in the understanding of 18th Century Piratininga's socialeconomic dynamics. Firstly, the analysis focuses on the business activities to which merchants were devoted, on the goods that were traded, on the places where these people and goods circulated and on the most profitable businesses they were involved in. As in colonial society wealth and prestige were necessary conditions for men and values to ascend and to be hierarchically positioned, this work, in a second moment, sheds light on the participation of merchants in local power institutions
