CORREA, Rubén Emilio; FRUTOS, María Elva  and  QUINTANA VILLACORTA, Sergio. Elections, Representation and The principle of consent and legitimacy: The formation of the state Salta province, 1821-1823. Rev. Esc. Hist. [online]. 2007, n.6, pp.197-230. ISSN 1669-9041.

Through an analysis of records chapter, legislative sources and tally sheets, our research team, with input from studies on language and political elections in the River Plate during the nineteenth century, it will attempt to demonstrate how between 1821 (sanction the rules "constitutional") and 1823 (punishment of election rules and first election of representatives to the Provincial Board), political representation emerged from a universe of discourse and practices that overlapped the old traditions, with speeches and modern practices. In this context, in our view - was founded by an individual record of attitudes and concepts, which must be analyzed within the role of elections and the reformulation of sense of the old concept of consent and legitimacy.
