Abstract

The author analyses the evolution of the main organs of government, focusing on the Colateral Councils in Flanders during 16th and 17th centuries. Law professionals and technocrats on public finance took the place of old nobility, this fact is important to understand their position in the Rebellion. He stops to comment on the status of the civil servant (appointment, family, relations in administration, the sale of papers, etc.). And concludes that in spite of all progress made, the classical representation of the concept of burocracy was not attained at that time.
