ABSTRACT
The present article tries to offer a vision of how justice was applied
in the Philippines during the eighteenth century to maintain military disci-pline,
an essential factor for the proper functioning of the army of endowed
there. It will show several cases of military trials that committed crimes and
conflicts of jurisdiction arising between civil and military authorities for the
application of military jurisdiction to them. These examples will allow us
to analyze some characteristics of these processes: length of the processes,
instances that intervened, penalties that were applied, etc., as well as some
peculiarities that occurred in the Philippine archipelago in relation to other
overseas territories. Also, through the exposition of the most frequent cri-mes
committed by the soldiers, we will have an approximate view of the
poor conditions of life of the troops in the Philippines. This work is based,
above all, on the consultation of the original documentation preserved in the
Archivo General de Indias and the Archivo General de Simancas.
KEY WORDS: army, Philippines, military justice, military jurisdic-tion,
conflicts of competences.
