| Sumario: | Since Tulio Halperín Donghi’s seminal works, the notion of "militarization" plays a central role in Argentinean scholarship devoted to the independence war and its economic, politic and social consequences. However, this is a problematic concept whose meaning deserves to be openly discussed, especially when applied to a revolutionary context as that of the River Plate, where military matters were profoundly affected by ethnic, social and cultural factors. Based on interdisciplinary contributions and new quantitative data, this paper proposes some definitions about the scope and nature of the River Plate’s militarization process during the first independent decade, allowing some meaningful international comparisons. |
