Asaltar los pueblos. La montonera de Cipriano Benítez contra Navarro y Luján en diciembre de 1826 y la conflictividad social en la campaña bonaerense

Abstract

This paper analyzes the assault of Navarro town and Luján villa which in 1826, were conduced by a group of revolutionary horsemen, whose leader was a farmer of the west frontier- from an interpretative perspective that tries to identify and value the different forms of resistance of the subaltern groups of rural people, entering those ways of action into the existing conditions of the paisanos and into the historie living experiences which contributed to orientate those interventions. What happened in Navarro and Luján is less important than what it can appears and determine the highest point of expression of a social phenomenon much more large, interlaced with politic conflictivity and which will acquire major and new dimensions in the following years.
