Abstract

As part of an investigation focused on the police commandments issued in Buenos Aires between 1810 and 1821, we presented the bando published in San Fernando de Buena Vista on February 8, 1818, by the alcalde de la Hermandad José Joaquín de La Madrid. Based on unpublished documents from the Archivo General de la Nación, acts of the extinct cabildo of Buenos Aires, orders and instructions to the alcaldes de la Hermandad, newspapers and contemporary testimonies, we turn first to the author and then study the text itself, examining aspects of their development and promulgation, publication, diplomatic description and normative content, appeal and application.
