Sumario:In this article we examine the organization and dynamics of collective actions during an episode in the jurisdiction of Jujuy in 1781. Towards the end of March of that year, indigenous people from Chaco, soldados partidarios -soldiers who defended the border-, other inhabitants of the southern oriental zone and the city “plebeians”, would have been preparing an attack to the city of Jujuy. The proposed analysis focuses on how the calls for participation were made, the channels and modes of circulation of information and the movements of people in the jurisdiction. Moreover we seek to identify processes of decision making, the distribution of tasks and the internal structure of the movement. Reconstructing the meanings of the practices and visions the population of Jujuy’s jurisdiction had, regarding the colonial order at the end of the XVIII century is our main concern.
