This is a study of the birth of political life and the rise of a
political leadership in the River Plate area during the struggle
for independence from Spain. Professor Halperin's book is set
against the background of economic uncertainty associated with
independence: the problems of adapting not only to a more thorough
incorporation into the Atlantic economy and the associated economic
dependence on Britain, but also to the loss of the mining areas in
Upper Peru that had supplied the main export staples and most of
the revenue that made possible the growth of a complex
administrative and military apparatus there.
