Un 98 distinto: Restauración, Desastre, Regeneracionismo

Abstract

Review of the political process that led to 98 Spanish (the crisis of 1898). The study is, in fact, a review of the political history of the reign of Alfonso XII and Maria Cristina of Hapsburg. The author's thesis is that politics of '98' were basically constructive and consevador at once, according to the main concept of time: Regeneration. The literary aspect that the 'generation of 98' would make famous this date (1898) was secondary at this epoch, until circa 1910.
