GUZMAN PEREZ, Moisés. Cadiz, Insurgency and the Crisis in Jurisdictional Lordship in New Spain. The Case of Villa de Charo, 1808-1825. Relac. Estud. hist. soc. [online]. 2017, vol.38, n.151, pp.93-126. ISSN 2448-7554.  https://doi.org/10.24901/rehs.v38i151.329.

This text delves into the contradictions, changes and continuities that Villa de Charo experienced during the crisis of the Spanish Monarchy and the process of American emancipation, two processes closely-related to the impact of Hispanic liberalism. It seeks to go beyond the traditional historiographical vision that linked the history of this locality exclusively to the fabled meeting of Miguel Hidalgo and José María Morelos that took place there on October 20, 1810. The article highlights the consequences of the change in the village’s political status, as it ceased to be a corregimiento and was brought under the jurisdiction of Valladolid, as well as the social and economic setbacks caused by 10 years of constant warfare. Research was based on previously unpublished documental and archival sources, and on specialized bibliography dealing with the war of insurgency and the changes that occurred during those years.

Palabras llave : Charo Matlatzinco; jurisdictional lordship; war of independence; Courts of Cadiz; Spanish liberalism.
