Abstract


This articles studies the exercise of patronage regarding it within Chilean constitutions between 1810-1824. The Chilean ‘junta gubernativa’ created in 1810, differently from other places in America, did not exercise ecclesiastical patronage, but «Vicepatronato» in recognizing the peninsular authorities of the Monarchy. It will be only after the declaration of the independence in 1818 when the Supreme Director assumes the national patronage and sends a diplomatic mission to the Holy See asking to grant the patronage to the president of the republic. In this context, the local Church reacted claiming latejansenist episcopalism against state intervention in ecclesiastical matters
