What was the significance of political violence in 19th-Century Latin America?

本研究的重点是十九世纪拉美裔美国人的政治暴力的意义和制度。据推测，当时权力/暴力的统治制度是不稳定的，即它是有争议的和模棱两可的。考虑到这种多义性，并通过比较墨西哥和阿根廷，该项目旨在阐明代表所谓武装公民的士兵和民兵被理解为政治暴力。从经验上看，分析主要基于19世纪20年代对士兵和民兵的初步诉讼，因为这一时期代表了从旧的革命制度向共和国家秩序过渡的高潮。此外，该项目致力于促进关于拉丁美洲共和国宪法和政治秩序和空间发展的辩论。

This research focuses on the meanings and regimes of political violence Hispanic Americas in the nineteenth century. It is assumed that at the time the ruling regimen of power/violence was a precarious one, i.e. it was contended and ambiguous. Considering this polysemy, and by comparing Mexico and Argentina, the project aims at elucidating what soldiers and militiamen, who represented ideally the so-called armed citizenship, understood as political violence. Empirically, the analysis is based mainly on preliminary proceedings opened against soldiers and militiamen during the eighteen-twenties, since this period represented the culmination of transition from the Ancien Régime to the republican, national order. Furthermore, this project endeavors to contribute to the debate on the constitution and development of political orders and spaces in republican Latin America.
