Sumario:is article inquire in the egalitarian discourse and theuses of the concept of equality in the Río de la Plata between1810 and 1813, based on the analysis of the periodical pressand other sources of the period such as proclamations anddecrees of the revolutionary government. We seek to examinethe network of concepts, images and metaphors linked to thisnotion and its changes throughout the period. We also wonderabout what kind of equality could be proposed, practiced andimagined in a stamental society in war and revolution, wherepopular mobilization was based on novel political principlesand the questioning of the structures and practices of thecolonial order. We start from the hypothesis that there weredifferent conceptions about what equality was, not only betweenthe rioplatense enlightened factions, but also in relation tothe aspirations that promoted the political participation of thepopular sectors, this concept being a space of constant dispute.
