A formação do Estado e a Igreja no Rio da Prata

uma combinação de escalas de análise

Abstract

In this paper, different scales of analysis are combined to study processes of disarticulation and re-articulation of political and ecclesiastical jurisdictions during the building of nation-states in the 19th century. The combination of scales allowed, on one hand, to rethink the limits of the provincial sovereignties during the confederate stage and the importance of the ecclesiastical variable during the process of national constitution, and on the other, to incorporate the interests, actors and local dynamics as factors of Romanization, which is no longer seen as a process conducted exclusively from Rome, but as a multilateral and regionally-defined phenomenon.
