CARDOZA SAEZ, Ebert Roberto. The communards of Merida: Militias between loyalty and insurgency (1781-1810). Hist. Caribe [online]. 2015, vol.10, n.27, pp.103-140. ISSN 0122-8803. https://doi.org/10.15648/hc.27.2015.4.
This article discusses the causes and consequences of the revolt of the Communards of Merida, from the political and military point of view. It also takes into account their impact on the Andean military forces, along with the disciplined militias establishment, highlighting their role as a repressive instrument of the Spanish State, as well as an insurgent element in the context of social conflict unleashed in Venezuela in the late eighteenth century. The research, based on primary and secondary sources, takes part of a larger project about the origin and formation of military institutions in the Venezuelan Andes.
