Abstract

In this work a historical-legal approach is carried out to what was the Spain of the liberal era in order to understand the legal and social scope of that period. Located in that complex context and following the legislative activity of those years, is outlined the influence of Spanish liberalism in the drafting of the first constitutional text and the first criminal codification, paying special
attention to the legislative debates about the treatment of the arrested and their dignity. Finally, it is discussed regarding the effectiveness of that coding, its validity and legacy.
