BARRETO, Isabel y AZPIROZ, Andrés. Family and Social Mobility on the Border North of the Negro River (Uruguay) During the First Half of the 19th Century. Historelo.rev.hist.reg.local [online]. 2021, vol.13, n.28, pp.242-284. Epub 28-Jun-2021. ISSN 2145-132X. https://doi.org/10.15446/historelo.v13n28.92358.
The article focuses on the study of the ethnic and social characteristics of the populations north of the Río Negro in present-day Uruguay during the first half of the 19th century. This space forms different types of borders, which are related to their political, commercial, and social moments, thus characterizing a dynamic space of cultural interaction, mixture, and contact between populations. Given that this construction is based on the social interactions defining it in space and time, these populations are expected to have a dynamic characterized by a high heterogeneity -ethnic and geographical- in its components, as well as high masculinity values that would condition the marriage market and the illegitimacy of some groups. Based on the analysis of a varied corpus of documents, parish archives, and population registers, the research analyzes the presence of indigenous and Afro-descendant populations, the weight of illegitimacy, as well as permanence and social mobility in the border area, among other aspects. The results provide a more thorough picture of this border space, characterized as a continuum with the south of Brazil, where families are characterized by a multiethnic conformation and high spatial mobility.
