It presents the immediate antecedents to the events of the city like the scene are located in which the popular mobilization occurs and it stops in the characteristics of the collective action that takes place from the date indicated by the urban popular sectors. Finally one stands out how the vision about the political popular participation that shaped the leaders of the Creole elite it was conserved in the later historiography of independence.The journal Memoria y Sociedad is registered under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License.
