Abstract

Considering the value of ceremonies as representations of power, this text explores how these rituals positioned the monarchy in the Spanish nineteenth-century liberal system, and how the liberal regime was consolidated through the influence of the monarchy, which led to a certain configuration of the political system characterised by the interdependency between monarchy and liberalism.
