FRADKIN, Raúl O. Revolution, Commanders, and Government of Rural Towns. Buenos Aires, 1810-1822. hist.crit. [online]. 2014, n.53, pp.35-59. ISSN 0121-1617.

This paper analyzes the disputes that took place in rural towns during the Buenos Aires Campaign for the control of military commands. We seek to identify the opportunities that arose during the revolutionary process to transform the local government in a context of deep contradictions between the will of the upper government to control the campaign, and the aspirations of self-government of the towns. Through this, we identify some of the components of the political cultures that were a product of a singular combination and selective appropriation of colonial traditions and revolutionary discourses.

Palavras-chave : Buenos Aires; governance; local government; rural environment; political leadership.
