Title: Some considerations on the influence of economic liberalism in the May Revolution of 1810 in Buenos Aires, Argentina
Abstract: The revolutionary process of May 1810 in Buenos Aires, capital of the Viceroyalty of the Río de la Plata, occurred within 
	the context of the French Revolution, the United States’ struggle for independence and various changes in the European 
	countries’ economies. Liberal ideas played an essential role, and the opinions of Belgrano, Vieytes and Moreno, among others, 
	are the key to understanding the economic perspectives of the revolutionary men. Late mercantilists, physiocrats and classical 
	economists marked these men’s economic thought. The purpose of this paper is to review these intellectual influences on the 
	leaders of the May Revolution.
