This report contains a general vision of the social and political processes that were experienced by the communities, villages and cities located in the high Andean area of Huanuco. We examine, in particular, the microregion of Huamalíes near the Marañon river whose communities practice a seasonal agriculture on small plots associated with complex dynamic systems of migration toward surrounding mining areas and the coca rainforest of Monson. During the nineteenth and twentieth centuries two social groups emerge and consolidate with hegemonic power: Llata and La Union. The democratic and authoritarian options are expressed and diffused to the interior of the urban nuclei that evolve from villages to cities in their desire to be connected to the national oligarchical power and to conquer basic services in order to modernize their regional economies.

This report aims at systematising the actions deployed by the national republican state over a region when trying to centralise and articulate its general and institutional policies while facing the emergence of a new regional elite settled in two Andean micro valleys of tributary rivers of Marañon: Llata and Aguamiro. Since 1845 the state intensifies the centralisation of its bureaucratic apparatus and its presence in the borders of Huamalies. The political hegemony of Llata will be challenged by other towns lead by Aguamiro and Huallanca that split the provincial unity of Huamalies and foster the creation of the province of Dos de Mayo. In short, we examine a set of variables that include geography, administration of justice, politics and regional identity in order to reconstruct and reflect on the links between State and Nation in the 19th. century.

Landowners and small indigenous farmers were present in Piura’s society and economy in order to construct an agrarian system that allows this coastal region of the north of Peru to take place and start its development in the first decades of the 19th century. This essay tries to introduce us in the discussions of the progress in the productive border and the delivery of the public lands to the indigenous villages in a historical time of political crisis that goes from the Spanish Parliament of Cadiz to Simón Bolívar’s governmental work. To achieve this objective, we check the produced bibliography and systematize the information and file materials with the purpose of examining the particularities and the dynamics of an indigenous political culture that reasserts both life and history of the men of Catacaos village.

The main objective of this article is to explain the essencial role that played the municipalities of Morropón and Chulucanas for the consolidation of the populated centres inside Morropón and Yapatera large states. It also makes an effort to expose the protagonism of municipalities’ leadership handling a political and juridical culture, and fighting for the hegemony and power against Arrese family in a time of construction of state and republic in Piura’s region in the 19th century. Consulting manuscript sources of Piura’s Regional Archive and the Congress of the Republic we try to confront the beliefs and speeches and face them up with the historical reality of a region in a development process, and to include the political logic of these agglomerations of rural colonists, black freedmen, half-caste and Creole smallholders that have migrated and suited in these urban groups tha...

In this paper we try to reconstruct the historicity of a regional space, the political life of a set of social actors in their role of builders of a singular significance and a cultural horizon that allows them to assume –for example– a model of social representation (Junta de Gobierno) and increase the possibility to establish a new socio-ethnic autonomous power. In order to understand the sense of direction of this social movement, we work in reconstruct the economic situation, the thinking and the social forms that were assumed by the urban and rural groups that coexisted inside of a political Bourbon model. The struggles of these groups that were looking for a new configuration of the Bourbon model caused them to take up arms using violence against the institutional symbols but also focus in the resistance under negotiation mechanisms, alliances and slogans of the imminent arriva...

En este ensayo abordamos una temática poco estudiada por la historiografía regional de Piura: el hombre como agente modelador del paisaje en la región de Piura. Buscamos describir las características de la geografía colonial de un espacio regional norteño y explorar la dinámica y los flujos de la producción ganadera en las estancias ganaderas y los pueblos y las comunidades indígenas. Sintetizamos un capítulo del “Informe Económico de Piura (1804)” de don Joaquín de Helguero, para introducirnos en el conocimiento de los archipiélagos ecológicos denominados en ese tiempo “los valles” y la sierra de la provincia de Piura. La exploración de una diversidad de variables ligadas a estas dimensiones de la geografía y la economía nos permitirá adentrarnos en el conocimiento de la coyuntura de crisis regional y la situación particular de las sociedades indígenas y serr...

Los Borbones van a imponer una variedad de transformaciones de las diferenciaciones y categorías culturales institucionalizadas en la provincia de Piura. El estudio de estos cambios políticos a principios del siglo XIX es muy escaso. En los ensayos que publicamos en 2013 y 2014 verificamos que al interior de este microespacio regional de la costa norte del virreinato del Perú se había producido una redefinición de las fronteras culturales entre las agrupaciones poblacionales que ocupaban los valles de La Chira y el Piura. En esta ocasión describimos y analizamos la actuación de un negro liberto en Sechura y una página de la historia de los milicianos pardos en la ciudad de Piura a comienzos del siglo XIX.
