WESTERMEYER HERNANDEZ, Felipe. Influence of Spanish colonial law in the system of government during the ‘Patria Vieja’: constitutional monarchy?. Rev. estud. hist.-juríd. [online]. 2020, n.42, pp.659-688. ISSN 0716-5455.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0716-54552020000100659.

This article analyzes the system of government in force in Chile between 1810 and 1814. Until now, historians of constitutionalism have only emphasized political autonomy. This work studies and problematizes this thesis, by postulating that the government system was, in fact, a sui generis monarchy, which has little in common with the traditional model of the constitutional monarchy.

Palavras-chave : Patria Vieja; system of government; constitucional monarchy; political autonomy.
