Description
Résumé:In October 1767, a riot shook Papantla, an indigenous town in the viceroyalty of New Spain. This article analyzes the event on the broader stage of power structures, arguing that the riot was politically legitimate as it was based on the notion of law as guaranteed by the king.

In the author’s opinion, the riot was a manifestation of the Hispanic political order as regulated by law.
