Resumen
This investigation addresses the trial process of women belonging to different social spheres for the crime of slander in the colonial Cuenca of 1780-1900. In the judicial process through the analysis of five trials it was possible to demonstrate elements of symbolic value such as honor, blood status, social and economic positioning, which were of relevance for the judgment and authority’s dictum. At the same time, strategies of social whitening, attributions of roles, mechanisms or order and social control were also perceived.
