| Sumario: | This analysis is situated on the intersection of studies on the construction of modern citizenship, gender perspectives in history, and the processes of constituting municipal jurisdiction. Through the examination of the legislative framework that enabled the emergence of modern municipality in the province of Tucumán, particularly law 1246, and the analysis of the 1920 municipal reform that sought to enable women's suffrage, this work explores the legislative experiments that redefined the nature of the municipality and its political subject in gendered terms. These initiatives took place in the context of the rise of the suffrage movement in Argentina, which put women's political rights on the agenda. Our goal is to understand how municipal reforms challenged and transformed local power structures, opening debates about the construction of voters, representation, and the inclusion of women in this realm. |
