  • El modelo de colonización antioqueña de James Parsons. Un balance historiográfico Jaime Londoño Historia TURNER FREDERICK J 19TH CENTURY JAMES PARSONS 20 TH CENTURY Colombian historiography has not studied in detail the colonization processes starting at the end of theColonial period for the region of Antioquia in Colombia. The few available texts were inspired by JamesParsons’ classic study, La colonización antioqueña en el occidente de Colombia published in 1949, but itsincidence has not been fully evaluated. The only significant debate has centered on the author’s argumentregarding the formation of a supposedly egalitarian society by the smallholders and mediumholders in thearea. Nevertheless, this paper suggests that the general colonization model proposed by Parsons and theconcept of frontier set forth, taken from Frederick J. Turner, have been appropriated by researchers in apassive manner without critically reviewing them. Through an evaluation of the different texts dealingwith the topic of the antioqueño colonization, the author addresses the reasons for this passiveappropriation of the Parsonian model 2002 artículo científico 2027-4688 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=83307007 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=833 Fronteras de la Historia application/pdf Instituto Colombiano de Antropología e Historia Fronteras de la Historia (Colombia) Num.7
