Abstract: The main objective of this research has been to identify the determinants of durable and semi-durable goods' consumption in Castile between 1750 and 1850. These patterns of family consumption are very different and heterogeneous. It is necessary to distinguish those related with economic variables —family rent and its components (wages and taxes, for example)— and those related to the economic evolution, changes in rent distribution, credit faculties, inflation and other aspects of cultural, social and institutional character. First of all, I will explain some critical aspects on the probate inventories, the criteria adopted in their selection and the validity of the sample. An econometric approach that allows to identify the elements that had influenced in the consumption of durable and semi-durable goods has been employed.
