CANEDO, Mariana. The municipalities and the disentailment processes. The Patron Saint’s land (Buenos Aires, 19th century). Sig. his [online]. 2022, vol.24, n.48, pp.198-229.  Epub 01-Ago-2022. ISSN 1665-4420.

The aim of this paper is to examine the ways in which disentailment policies were implemented in the lands known as terrenos del Santo, located in some towns in the province of Buenos Aires. From a multisecular perspective, it focuses on the incidence of the actors, particularly the nineteenth-century municipalities, overshadowed in the studies despite their protagonism, and the influence of the interrelationship between the Catholic Church and the provincial state of Buenos Aires in the second half of the 19th century.
