«This collaborative book, edited by Tavares de Almeida and Moreno Luzón, concerns essential aspects of political life during the monarchical and constitutional period since the 1830s, focusing on the period of consolidation of Iberian liberal regimes from the 1870s to 1930s. Authoritative researchers reveal that both countries had strong political similarities and convergences. Common to both were the origins of a representative system with clientelist mobilization, electoral processes with fraud and corruption, the evolution of suffrage to a wider population, although with class and gender limitations, and the critical image of the role of parliaments for intellectuals and for ordinary citizens.»
