Abstract

This work aims to examine the role of the city of Barcelona and its elites, linked to the industrial economy, in the construction of the liberal Spanish state; when, once the liberal revolution was complete, moderate stabilisation led to a centralist State, especially following the reform of regional powers. In view of this dominant characteristic of the new State, the work looks to assess the difficulties that Barcelonas bourgeoisie had, on the one hand, in influencing and obtaining favourable policies for their industrialist project which was not simply a defensive tariffs policy, but a capitalist development programme for Spain, and, on the other, the enormous difficulties that these elites had in establishing their hegemony and governing the internal conflicts inherent in the new classist society with the few instruments that the State provided.
