Abstract

Santa Fe city is yet a field of vacancy regarding historiographical studies on crime, punishment, police and the wider problem of order, between the 1850’s and the 1950’s in Argentina. However this is not due to the absence of documentary sources. Government and Police documents are lodged in archives and deposits with different material and institutional difficulties that nonetheless pose broad possibilities for inquiring in the specific forms of transgression and punishment. This paper goes through the archives of the city of Santa Fe with the goal of contributing to the study of the problem of order from the critical perspective of social history. With that aim, we describe documents located in the Archivo General, the Archivo del Servicio Penitenciario and of the archives of the provincial pólice.
