This contribution offers an analysis of the work of Darío G. Barriera Historia y justicia. Cultura, política y sociedad en el Río de la Plata (Siglos XVI-XIX) whose main and exclusive purpose is to underline its relevance, basing its exceptional character on the current and globalized historiographic panorama. For these purposes, it emphasizes the most unique extremes of a historical/historiographic narrative/ reflection, whose multiple cross-border condition (geographical, temporal and disciplinary) acts as a multiplying factor of its interest. According to this critic, the results obtained in the course of the long, demanding and reflective investigation that has culminated in the publication of Historia y justicia constitute an unavoidable reference for scholars of the past and present of the power attributed to judges, as well as of the political, legal and social consequences of its effective exercise.

Keywords : Historiographic criticism; academic disciplines; historical methodology; Government of justice; premodern societies.
