Abstract
The text is the synthesis of an ongoing research about the meaning of the revolution in New Granada, nowadays Colombia, under the hypothesis that it involves the crossing of a monarchy to a democratic regime. Firstly, it examines the main features of the society that preceded the revolution, showing how the monarchy served as a reference to a corporative and hierarchical society of great stability. Secondly, it shows the central pivots of revolutionary mutation, underscoring how the revolution not only promoted the national making but also simultaneously started a democratic society founded on the principle of equality. Finally, it examines the place given by the Colombian generations in the national narrative to the foundational revolution.
