CHARRY JOYA, Carlos Andrés. El impacto del 9 de abril en Cali y el Valle del Cauca. CS [online]. 2009, n.4, pp.55-90. ISSN 2011-0324.  https://doi.org/10.18046/recs.i4.436.

From a procedural perspective, this article explores and analyzes the forms of social configuration of regional power during the years prior to the assassination of Jorge Eliécer Gaitán and the impact that his murder had on such processes. The author highlights the position achieved by marginal social groups as a consequence of the sociopolitical transformations that occurred during the decades of 1930 and 1940. He also discusses the tensions present among the established sectors and how, after April 9th 1948, a considerable change in the equilibrium of power between social sectors occurred and altered the previous trend.
