ETCHECHURY BARRERA, Mario. Milicias, identidades y “partidos” durante el sitio de Montevideo: la “revolución de abril” y los espacios de la representación armada (1846-1848). Bol. Inst. Hist. Argent. Am. Dr. Emilio Ravignani [online]. 2021, n.54, pp.31-57. ISSN 0524-9767. http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.34096/bol.rav.n54.9528.
This article analyzes the modalities of political action of the “popular classes” in the city-port of Montevideo and the way in which ethnic identities, military leaderships and loyalties were conjugated in the mid-1840s, in the context of the military siege of 1843-1851. To this end, the paper explores the developments of the so-called “April Revolution” of 1846, a mutiny that involved many foreigner militiamen, native soldiers and freed slaves. The episode, which inaugurated a “race of the riots” that lasted for the next two years, serves as an observatory to explore practices and discourses of the “parties” that operated at that period inside the city, and allows to study the permanent links between militia and politic.
