FRANCISCO, ALEJANDRO SAN. Army and the definition of its constitutional principles. Obedience and non- political deliberation in Chile, 1829-1830. Hist. Caribe [online]. 2020, vol.15, n.36, pp.235-277.  Epub 08-Jul-2021. ISSN 0122-8803.  https://doi.org/10.15648/hc.36.2020.10.

This article deals with the Chilean Army principles of obedience and non-military deliberation during the 1829 civil war, when two interpretations of these principles were confronted: some soldiers supported the government meanwhile others rebelled against it, arguing that the authorities had violated the constitution.

The study concludes that, although there was unity around these principles in theoretical terms, the practical understanding of them was contradictory, which was decisive for the outbreak of war and for the creation of a new constitutional order in Chile.
