description The article analyzes the tensions between the Society of Jesus, linked to the Portuguese Padroado, and the Leal Senado of Macau, taking as a case study the conflict involving Bento Pereira de Faria (1676). Situating the analysis within the political-religious framework of the post-Restoration period and the jurisdictional disputes between the Padroado and the Congregation of Propaganda Fide, the author argues that municipal governance and missionary ambitions intersected around competences, patronage, and the control of religious practices, in a context marked by international competition and the redefinition of influences in the East. Methodologically, the study draws on the historical-documentary reconstruction of the episode, articulating the local analysis of Macau with the broader problematic of the mechanisms of presentation, financing, and missionary autonomy in Portuguese territories. The author demonstrates that, although the Padroado regime sought to delimit evangelizing action to areas under Portuguese political dominion, the presence and prestige of the Jesuits—particularly in the broader Asian sphere—intensified friction points with civil and religious authorities. The article concludes that the 1676 case reveals how the administration of Macau operated simultaneously as a space of mediation and a field of conflict, where the interests of the mission and public order did not always converge.
