In order to reveal its genuine meaning, the revolution of independence, seen as a political process, needs to be studied in the context of the links that were existing between the cities of the old viceroyalty and their evolution during this ten-year period. Considering this, the problems of political representation, and conception of the sovereign "pueblo", appear with a double aspect: the traditional view consists in considering the cities - seen as human and juridical communities - as the subject of the new sovereignty, but the revolutionary leaders tend to uphold the modern conception, considering the people in a unique and abstract way, as a community of individuals. The first decade of rioplatense revolution can be seen mostly as a series of attempts made by the central government in order to conciliate those two approaches. Those should be not seen as two separate and opposite options, but as two faces of the same political project
