PABON SERRANO, Óscar Mauricio. Creation of Provincial supreme board in Pamplona and the hit against Corregidor Juan bastús y Faya. Mem. Soc. [online]. 2011, vol.15, n.31, pp.30-48. ISSN 0122-5197.

The Independence of Pamplona and all the other neogranadins popular movements of 1810 were, specifically, the creation of governing bodies by local councils and the assembled towns. Those bodies temporarily and chaotically reassumed sovereignty in order to preserve it in the name of King Ferdinand VII,kidnapped by napoleon troops. In this sense,Independences consisted in choosing self-government within the framework of monarchic crisis and following signs of political liberalism. This paper shows the events that led on to the violent destitution of catalan Corregidor Juan Bastúas y Faya. This revolutionary action led pamplonenses capitulants to the creation of the Provincial Supreme Board that tried to represent towns on their jurisdiction in the central political body of the imagined neogranadin nation.
