YANGILEVICH, Melina. Prefectures, Police Stations and State Construction in the Province of Buenos Aires (Argentina) in the Mid-19th Century. Secuencia [online]. 2018, n.102, pp.70-99. ISSN 2395-8464. https://doi.org/10.18234/secuencia.v0i102.1359.
The purpose of this article is to analyze the formation and consolidation of the state in the province of Buenos Aires in the mid-19th century by examining the functioning of prefectures and police stations. To this end, various published and unpublished documentary sources were used. The analysis focused on the factors that conditioned the organization and functioning of the prefectures. These include the inability of the new authorities to build legitimacy within communities due to the weak state presence and the role played by the judges of peace in the governance of these spaces. The study attempts to use the present analysis to show that state construction was the result of everyday negotiation in local spaces between diverse political actors.
