VANEGAS USECHE, ISIDRO. Elections and Social Order in New Granada, from the Monarchy to the Republic. Anu. colomb. hist. soc. cult. [online]. 2021, vol.48, n.1, pp.69-93.  Epub 27-Jan-2021. ISSN 0120-2456.  https://doi.org/10.15446/achsc.v48n1.91545.

This article examines the nature of elections both in the monarchical order and in the republican order born with the New-Grenadian Revolution, analyzing its role in the representation that society elaborates on itself. It shows how in the monarchy the elections, although copious, had an accessory role linked to the designation of marginal responsibilities in the whole of a transcendent order, while in the republic the elections became central, as an expression of the atomization of the society from the principle of the abstract citizen who only obeys the authority and the law if those are the product of consent.
