The book had an immediate political repercussion. When he knew about the San Nicolás Agreement he sent a copy of the Bases to Urquiza, who welcomed it. He supported federalism and the end of the port of Buenos Aires as the sole international customs of the whole country. Alberdi stayed in Chile, to keep distance from the political turmoil caused by the fall of Rosas, and began writing the ' Bases.' to propose ideas for the upcoming constitution. Urquiza wanted the organization of the country and the promulgation of a national constitution, which Rosas denied. Rosas was finally defeated by Justo José de Urquiza in 1852.
He did not return to Argentina, as Rosas was still in power, and neither to Montevideo, which was waging the Uruguayan civil war. Juan Bautista Alberdi, discontent with the rule of Juan Manuel de Rosas, had moved to France, but decided to return to South America in 1843.
Many points from it were incorporated into the Argentine Constitution of 1853. Bases y puntos de partida para la organización política de la República Argentina ( Spanish: Bases and starting points for the political organization of the Argentine republic) is an Argentine book by Juan Bautista Alberdi.
