Resumen
Descripción
Proponemos analizar cómo funcionó la primera municipalidad establecida en la Provincia de Entre Ríos, de qué manera se conformó y cuál fue su naturaleza. Buscamos relacionar la instalación de la Municipalidad de Paraná –Capital transitoria de la Confederación Argentina– en 1860 y su supresión en 1862, con las transformaciones territoriales, políticas y fiscales que tuvieron lugar en esta provincia a mediados del siglo XIX. Partimos de un supuesto: consideramos a las municipalidades como una nueva forma de gobierno a escala local más que concebirlas como un poder administrativo. A partir del análisis de la normativa, correspondencias y datos económicos, argumentamos que estamos ante un gobierno municipal con amplias prerrogativas, pero en un contexto signado por enfrentamientos políticos entre las provincias confederadas y el Estado de Buenos Aires que impidieron su desarrollo.
We pose to analyze the operations carried out by the first municipal council established in the Province of Entre Ríos, how was it conformed and its constitution. We try to relate the installment of Paraná Municipality - transitory capital of the Argentinian Confederation - in 1860 and its suppression in 1862, with the territorial, political and fiscal transformations that took place in this province by the middle of the XIX century. We start from a premise: to consider the municipal councils as a new form of government at a local scale rather than conceiving them as administrative power. Through the to legislation analyze, correspondences and economic data we argue that we are before a municipal government with broad prerogatives, but in a context marked by political confrontations between the confederated provinces and the State of Buenos Aires which prevented its development.
