Sumario:This article studies the political interaction ofwomen with their context and their constructionsas political subjects – in all their complexity– beyond their vocal opposition or supportto a party during the Independence of the NewGranada period, particularly in Santafe, from1810 to 1820. First of all, we tackle the reciprocalrelationship of rights and duties heldwith the government as women, which impliedgender-differentiated functions that wereaccepted (or not), helping to maintain the establishedorder (or challenging it). Second, wedeal with the reciprocal relationship of rightsand duties held with the government, not onlyas women, but as vassals, citizens, or, the meregeneric concept of “people under the government”.This concept makes it possible to overcomethe resistance of the actors of the time toconcede a political status to them. Lastly, weanalyze their construction as political supportersand detractors.
