In the delegation of the colonial power on the part of the Spaniards to the American or Creole Spaniards, the episteme and the axes of the crisis were transferred from the colonial system to the “colonialidad”. In this context, those with authority (Spaniards, Americans and subordinate Spaniards of the different agencies) in America assumed the conflict, and they even contributed to the diagnosis, but they confirmed the outcasting of the populace. The Creole power in the colonialidad reproduces the agreements and disagreements regarding the “alteridad”. In this sense, it would be to establish the position of the Spanish authorities’ power comparatively, of American or Creole Spanish, and even of the mestizo in front of the Indian and of the plebeian fellow.
