ABSTRACT
This contribution analyzes the relationship between the nominations made at the beginning of each year for seats in the cabildo of Buenos Aires between 1776 and 1810, and the relative position of political individuals from capitular families in their social network. We found statistical evidence that corroborates this relationship between political power and capitular individuals using social network analysis.
