Abstract

This text analyzes the constitutional tranquillity in Spain during 1848, a year of social Revolutions in Europe, and tries to explain this particular situation in Spain. The opposition between revolution-Constitution, as well as the political sources (British and French) of the Spanish political thought in that period is also studied as a justification of the lack of Revolution in 1848.
