Abstract

The goal of our study is the analysis of the different stages that marked the establishment of the offices of the National Institute of Colonization (INC in Spanish) as well as its internal organization, both of the Central Services in Madrid, as well as in the different regional offices along the Ebro basin: the Regional Delegation of the Ebro, in Zaragoza and the Delegation of the INC in Lleida. These two regional offices were in charge of the development of the INC plans and the only ones that remained in the area all the time the INC and the IRYDA were operational, whereas the other regional offices, such as Tortosa, had a more sporadic use.
