espanolEste articulo propone una consideracion de las diversas formas de liderazgo sociopolitico en el Antiguo Egipto del IV y el III milenio a.C. en relacion con las logicas sociales del parentesco, del Estado y del patronazgo. Se sugiere que tales logicas pueden pensarse en terminos de coexistencia mas que de secuencia. En particular, se enfatiza la posibilidad de emplear el concepto de patronazgo no solamente para los periodos de crisis estatal sino, en articulacion con los conceptos de parentesco y de Estado, para pensar las epocas mas tempranas de la historia egipcia. EnglishThis article analyses different types of sociopolitical leadership in Ancient Egypt from the fourth to the third millennium BC linked with the social logics of kinship, the state, and patronage. It is suggested that such logics can be considered in terms of coexistence rather than in terms of sequence. In particular, the use of the concept of patronage is emphasised, not just for periods of state crisis but also—in connection with the concepts of kinship and the state—to think about the earliest epochs of Egyptian history.
