Title: Vida cotidiana en las postrimerías de El Paso colonial
Abstract: The purpose of the paper is to offer readers a historical account of events, situations and processes that occurred in El Paso del Norte (now Ciudad Juarez) during particular times in the second half of the Eighteenth Century and the first half of the Nineteenth. The common thread between all of them is the daily life of residents, both inthe private and public spheres, which integrated manners and customs, names, legal and political relations, economy, religion, among other social practices.The main characters are almost always anonymous; men and women unknown to history. The central idea is that the narrative helps to put the history of this city under a microscope and by looking more closely we can understand it from this perspective. I have assumed that these stories will serve to fuel the desire or inspiration for new research, to arrive at conclusions which are useful to readers or provide some pleasure by reading for knowledge of the past. The work is based on primary documentary sources in the Juarez Municipal Archives (AHMJ).
