| Sumario: | In this paper, we will analyze the recruitment of national guards, the conditions of militia service and the resistances against the obligation to arm themselves. The latter were identified as contempt for authority,desertions, mutinies, uprisings; and since all were considered criminal acts against the State they were penalized. Moreover, there were less contested practices to avoid active service and had the endorsement ofthe State, like individual dispensation requests, collective exception pleas and the use of surrogates. The above mentioned material will enable us to assess whether it is feasible to use the notion of “armed citizenship” in order to study the National Guard on the frontier. |
