Abstract
CODESIDO-MARZORATTI, Lucas. Soldiers, their heads and the state: the construction of obedience in the line army (Argentina, 1862-1882). Hist. Caribe [online]. 2019, vol.14, n.35, pp.179-211. ISSN 0122-8803. https://doi.org/10.15648/hc.35.2019.7.
This paper examines some practices carried out to the military forces training of the Nation in the period 1860-1880. It is explored the configurations of the line forces and the penitentiary character assumed by military service within national troops in the militarization of Argentine political life context during the second half of the 19th century. We question about the mechanisms brought into play in the relations between soldiers and officers based on this punitive character that represented the very existence of the Army of Line.
