Abstract

This article analyses the political and ideological tansformations that took place in Guayaquil between 1809 and 1820; a period during which the city underwent a transition from a marked loyalty to the Spanish crown towards autonomy and independence. The study focuses on specific controversies between local power groups and the reactions by the cabildo to the successive regional and peninsular particularities. The essay reveals the connections beween the internal social tensions and the dynamic, until now unknown, of various elections which took place between 1809 and 1813, as well as the local impact of the application of the Constitution of Càdiz. The study conludes with a reconsideration of the independence of Guayaquil in 1820.
