This article offers a discussion on the historical importance of the war dimension of the processes of disintegration and collapse of the Iberian monarchies in America and the establishment of national states, using Mexico as a case study. One of its intentions is to show the relevance of the concept " war culture" to evaluate the multiple impacts of those conflicts in the Ibero-American societies of the first quarter of the 19th century and the ways in which individuals, groups and communities modified sociability, organization and behaviors through violence and armed mobilization. With an emphasis on the practices, experiences and intentions of the subjects involved in the revolutionary war in New Spain that produced the Mexican Independence, the proposal evaluates the perspectives of combatants, non-combatants and the institutional impulses of control, vigilance and security of the new order.
