La administración real y la movilización de los recursos de la monarquía: la Junta de Coroneles (1635-1641)

Overview
Since the end of the Mantuan War (1628-1631), and particularly after the outbreak of the war with France (1635), the military needs of the Spanish monarchy grew to levels that have never seen before. Consequently, and not being able to satisfy them by the traditional recruitment systems, the royal administration turned its attention to private contractors, who could solve or at least alleviate them. Although the recruitment of new troops was controlled by the Council of War, Olivares chose to manage it through one of his favourite methods: the formation of a “junta” composed of men of his trust. With that motivation, an administrative entity known as the “Junta de Coroneles” emerged, which played an active role in the last years of the 30s, in everything related to the sending of soldiers, specially to Flanders and Italy. Desde el fin de la guerra de Mantua (1628-1631), y sobre todo tras la ruptura de las hostilidades con Francia (1635), las necesidades militares de la monarquía española crecieron hasta niveles nunca vistos. Como consecuencia, y ante la imposibilidad de satisfacerlas por los sistemas tradicionales de reclutamiento, la administración real volvió la vista hacia los particulares, quienes podían dar respuesta, o al menos paliarlas. Pese a que el reclutamiento de nuevos contingentes era competencia del Consejo de Guerra, Olivares optó por gestionarla mediante uno de sus métodos favoritos: la constitución de una junta compuesta por hombres de confianza. Con esa finalidad surgió una entidad administrativa conocida como Junta de Coroneles, que en los años finales de la década de los 30 jugó un activo papel a la hora de aprestar hombres, sobre todo para los teatros de operaciones europeos.
