Abstract

Starting from a reflection on the importance of Spanish revolutionary model in liberal and romantic Europe, the article discusses the specific case of the Piedmontese revolution of 1821. On the one hand, analyzes the revolutionary process a la española faced by Piedmontese liberals, while, on the other hand, studies both the position occupied by the Spanish Constitution of 1812 among the constitutional models during the Restoration, as well as the process leading a movement preferably moderated to accept the Spanish political proposals, of a more radical nature.
