PEREZ-NARANJO, Ana-María. "Live in Police": Reforms to Moral and Traditions in Santa Fe de Antioquia and Medellin, 1760-1810. Historelo.rev.hist.reg.local [online]. 2022, vol.14, n.29, pp.88-121.  Epub 24-Nov-2021. ISSN 2145-132X.  https://doi.org/10.15446/historelo.v14n29.93830.

The objective of this article is to analyze the different mechanisms that sought to order and control the population considered "wild" in the province of Antioquia, the plebs. The immorality of the people was the center of the discourse of governors and elite whose actions and involvement were shown, among other factors, in the criminal trials of the time. The present article has a qualitative approach, determined by the analysis of the discourses of both the elite and the officials. Additionally, a set of rules called groups of good government, general regulations, and ordinances were examined. Finally, documentation from regional files was reviewed, especially those located in the Historical Archive of Medellín and the Historical Archive of Antioquia. From the different sources investigated, it was identified to what extent the project of the reform of the morality and traditions could be consolidated in the province; recognizing how the streets, the night, and the scandal were recurrent words in all criminal cases against the people of "corrupted habit".
