GUARIN-MARTINEZ, Oscar. Political sociability: a game of light and shadows. Mem. Soc. [online]. 2010, vol.14, n.29, pp.25-36. ISSN 0122-5197.

The concept of political sociability has been widely spread and assumed as a valid and pertinent analytical tool for studying the processes of construction of political modernity. However, it is a problematic concept, at least in terms of addressing its use. The present article has the fundamental objective of making a theoretical reflection around political sociability, as well as proposing some lines of analysis referred to the application of this category into the study of Colombian cultural manifestations of the 19th century.

Keywords : Sociability; Modernity; Politics; Elite Class; Popular Class; Modernization; Social classes; Cultural events.
