Abstract
PUIGMAL, Patrick Jacques. Military and political militants: the actions of the Napoleons in republican construction in Latin America during independence (1810-1835). Hist. Caribe [online]. 2019, vol.14, n.35, pp.55-83. ISSN 0122-8803. https://doi.org/10.15648/hc.35.2019.3.
Discover the presence of napoleonic soldiers and agents during the process of the independence of Latin America and prove that, more over their military roles, they played remarkable roles in the debates and the construction of the new societies, supporting the elaboration of liberal republics. They did it from the prestige given to them by their military skills and they used a chain of complementary strategies to obtain it: the public debate, the creation and direction of newspapers, the development of educational systems and the membership of intellectual movements such as the masonry.
Keywords : napoleonic militars; independence; influence; ideology.
