Asociaţiile de stradă (kalandos) din oraşul Zalău sec. XVII-XIX

  • Subiect: The Street Associations „Kalandos” of the Town Zalău during the 17th-19th Centuries In western Europe these types of associations were set up in the middle of the 13th century. The members of the organization (the priests) had a meeting on the first day of each month; hence the Hungarian naming Kaliandos (from ca 1 e nd a e). At the end of the I4th century these associations had their first laic members, who used these associations for their secret political purposes. In 1519 a law forbade the setting up of such associations. In The State Archives - branch Sălaj district there are seven official reports of the association Kalandos from the town Zălau. In Zălau there were four Kalandos association organized on the main streets (Krasna street, Tyukol street, Szekely nagy utca and Alszeg street) including the lateral streets from their districts. We are not in possesion of documents which could attest the setting up of the first Kalandos association in Zălau, but we can infer from their inventories that they had been set up in the 17th century already. The association was led by, the „gociman", by two deans, the council of old people, which made the decision in certain problems; two tax collectors and the notary. The functioning of the Kalandos association was similar to that of the guild, but the associations were not administrative organizations, having important prerogatives in all the domain of the people's life: instruction, burials, maintaining of cleanliness, hiring of watchman, etc. Although the Kalandos association were set up as organizations of the clergy, their functions had changed together and parallel with the changing of the social and economic relations. They became the organization of a more restricted community, which had the right to take decisions concerning the every-day life.
