The Framing of Political Decision-Making in the Post-Colonial State-Building Process: Argentina and Mexico in the First Half of the 19th Century (B14 [B07])

该项目比较了阿根廷和墨西哥在世纪中期的政治决策框架，当时两国的政治秩序开始稳定。比较能够说明民族国家发展的路径依赖。重点将放在国家行为体（民兵、军队）以及将其纳入政治进程的努力。该项目将研究有关这些行为者的话语，以及他们参与各省和民族国家之间的冲突决策过程。

This project compares the framing of political decision-making in Argentina and Mexico around the middle of the 19th century when the political order of both countries began to stabilise. A comparison is able to illustrate the path dependency of developments in the nation-state. The focus will be on state actors (militias, the army) and the attempts to incorporate them into the political process. The project will study the discourse about these actors as well as their participation in conflictual processes of decision making between the provinces and the nation-state.
