Interpretación teológica de la aplicación de la ley de bienes de manos muertas promulgada por el general Mosquera en la confederación neogranadina

Abstract

This work is structured in three chapters, through which a possible answer to the following research question will be glimpsed: How to theologically interpret the application of the law of confiscation of property of Dead Hands in the Neo-Granadian Confederation? In order to arrive at the answer of the question, it is necessary to know first the historical-political context, which is where the reasons that lead to the execution of the disentailment law are given. For this in the first two chapters will be presented a general overview of some relevant historical events in the course of the nineteenth century. It would not be possible to understand this provision of the government, if before it is not located in the political context of the New Granada period. Finally, the answer is given in the third chapter where all the events are analyzed in the light of the theology of history. Starting from facts such as: the nine civil wars that are gestated in the nineteenth century, the different constitutions that were institutionalized according to the political group that exercised power, whether liberal or conservative, which determine the future development of the nascent nation.
