CABRERA HANNA, Santiago. Citizenship, Political Representation and Territory in the Audience of Quito: in between the 1812's Solemn Covenant and the 1813's. Mem. Soc. [online]. 2016, vol.20, n.41, pp.109-127. ISSN 0122-5197.  https://doi.org/10.11144/Javeriana.mys20-41.crpt.

The article considers the Solemn Covenant issued by the Superior Board of Governors of Quito in 1812, and the census directed by To-rivio Montes, in 1813, as the first step of the introduction of the Cadiz Constitution in the Audience of Quito, following the defeat of the Junta of Quito. These two policy instruments are valued in terms of the imaginaries of citizenship that they molded in terms of political representations they attempted to institute and the concept of territory as fundamental in shaping the institutional dynamics of local authorities which have aspirations to centralize power. Both instruments are considered as tools in terms of building central powers.
