This conference is the second meeting organised around the project Villes insurgées, villes réprimées (VIVIR), coordinated by Casa de Velázquez and Antonio Álvarez-Ossorio Alvariño (Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Research Group Sociedad cortesana y redes diplomáticas, HAR2015-67069-P), Manuel Herrero Sánchez (Universidad Pablo de Olavide de Sevilla, Research Group POLYCENTRICSTATES, HAR2013-45357-P) and Alain Hugon (University of Caen). This project aims to analyse contention in urban contexts during the Early Modern period, including insubordination and symbolic and violent resistance to the directives put forward by the rulers. Apart from these movements of protest and resistance, we are interested in the repression devices implemented by the authorities and in the policing and surveillance mechanisms put in place by the allegedly legitimate governments in order to smoothen the multiple faces of contention.

 In this occasion we shall deal with protest, rebellion and resistance processes, as well as with repression mechanisms and the restoration of order, from the point of view of the different models of sovereignty that were in operation in Europe and also in overseas territories. The main objective of the congress is thus to question the classic paradigm that assures that the consolidation of the Modern State was based on the concentration of power in the hands of the sovereign, at the expense of local authorities, in a process that involved the taming of the nobility and the systematic erosion of municipal autonomy and liberties. Between the 16th and 18th centuries, State and sovereignty, far from converging in a process of aggregation that resulted in an inevitable formation of a homogenous national State, crystallised in a large variety of institutional formulas, supported by the vigour of an important urban substratum; this explains the predominance of political models characterised by plural and overlapping sovereignties in the most densely urbanised regions in the European continent.
