GALLUCCI, Lisandro. Cessation and Restoration of an Argentine Province. The Federalization of Entre Ríos and the Character of the Provincial Entity (1853-1861). Rev. hist. am. argent. [online]. 2024, vol.59, n.1, e003.  Epub 13-Maio-2024. ISSN 2314-1549.  http://dx.doi.org/10.48162/rev.44.054.

Soon after the enactment of the 1853 Constitution, the province of Entre Ríos, a member of the Argentine Confederation, was declared Federal Territory. This transformation meant the extinction of the provincial government and the disposition of Entre Ríos under the exclusive jurisdiction of the Federal State. The paper examines this unique experience, largely overlooked by historians, in order to think about the different ways in which the provincial condition seems to have been understood by mid-XIXth Century. The article posits that the provincial quality was then far from being conceived as a perpetual and unalterable condition, which might have led to its subordination to political circumstances. To recreate the uncertainty under which agents acted the paper lays mainly on the analysis of legislative debates in the light of historiography on the period.
