Abstract

This work thinks about the necessity to look for and to confront the social structures of the nations, so that history is not understood from an unilateral vision, like it is the frequent case of attributing Cuenca the condition of realistic fortress in the independence process. Two moments of the situation are examined –starting from August 16 1809 and March 1811– as insurgent antecedents of the independence of the city that culminates November of 1820, pointing out that neighbors from Cuenca supported the liberal independence of Quito and that the realistic current was lead for Spanish authorities who implanted a terror regime to control and to repress the population.
