La contrarrevolución en el exilio: Clérigos y conservadores ecuatorianos en Pasto en los primeros años de la Revolución liberal ecuatoriana, 1895-1902

Abstract

This paper aims to analyze the political practices of the Ecuadorian

conservatives and clergymen exiled in Pasto during the first years of the

Liberal Revolution. These practices included armed incursions as well as

an intense editorial activity. The experience of exile contributed to redefining

Ecuadorian conservatism and also revealed the porosity of the border

between Ecuador and Colombia and the transnational dimension of the

struggle between conservatives and liberals in the Andean countries in the

nineteenth century.
