The article discusses the liberal social and economic views of the Cortes de Cádiz, which was a constituent assembly that took place in Spain from 1810 to 1814 as part of the claim of sovereignty in the context of the Napoleonic Wars. Particular focus is given to the influence of French Enlightenment in the ideas of the assembly. Topics discussed include the role of agriculture in Spanish economy, the agrarian reform, and the defense of industrialism and industrialization. Special attention is given to the work of Spanish jurist and author Melchor G. de Jovellanos, particularly the idea of public happiness.

The article describes the history congress that took place in Valencia, Spain from September 8th to 10th, 2010 entitled "Las Cortes de Cádiz, la Constitución de 1812 y las independencias nacionales en América y el Mediterráneo." Among the concepts discussed as part of the conference include the formation of the Constitution of 1812, as well as its antecedents, characterization, and repercussions.

The article focuses on 17th century Spanish nobleman Valerio Cortés del Rey and his career in the colonial province of Nueva Vizcaya, in New Spain. It cites his arrival from Zaragoza, Spain, in 1621, and describes the social and political situation in the 17th century frontier province of Nueva Vizcaya. The author discusses Cortés del Rey's rise to political and military positions of influence, including his founding of two Mayorazgos (Majorats) for his sons in 1689 in the province of Santa Barbara.

The article reflects on the influences of the Peruvian press on public opinion relating to governmental policy, cultural politics and Spanish liberalism during Peru's transition to independence between 1820 and 1824. The author addresses the three stages of government during the time period, including the protectorate, the establishment of the Constitutional Congress and the dictatorship of Simón Bolívar. Spanish constitutionalism, known as the Liberal Triennium, was portrayed by the press through Peruvian newspapers, contends the author. The influences of Spanish King Fernando VII and the constitutional monarchy are discussed.

The article examines ties between Spanish historian Francisco López de Gómara and Spanish conquistador Hernán Cortés and his offspring, including son Martín Cortés and daughter María Cortés, based on testimony given by López de Gómara in legal cases in 1549 and 1551, just before publication of his book "Historia de las Indias y conquista de México." It explains that, according to his testimony, López de Gómara met Hernán Cortés in 1529 or 1530 after the latter returned from the New World for the first time, that he had a friendship with Martín Cortés, and that he did not know María Cortés.

This article discusses the development of the Yucatan Peninsula in colonial Mexico during the early 19th century. The author considers the role of the deputies who were sent to the Cortes de Cadiz, a political assembly of Spain, on behalf of the Yucatan Province. She comments on the traditional description of the Yucatan as a poverty stricken region that was separated from the major centers of power in the colonies. The deputies' changing of this narrative to focus on the region's wealth and hopes for autonomy is also explored.

The article presents information on the Congreso Internacional "La Constitución gaditana de 1812 y sus repercusiones en América," an international conference on the Cádiz Constitution of 1812, taking place in Cádiz, Spain during September 2009. It notes the sessions comprising the conference, including the initial meeting led by doctor Alberto Ramos Santana, a session on the Americas and Spain during the late 18th century, and a session on Latin American representatives in the Spanish Cortes.
