Abstract
This paper seeks to present the way in which the Northamerican Press communicated the socio-political changes occurred in Spain in 1814: reflecting the high level of criticism and disappointment generated among the people of the United States. To this end, the official version of the Spanish papers and authorities revealed to the US publishers will be considered together with the criticism they offered as a result of further considerations about it. It was an image of disappointment the one presented in the Press, and it was a different one from the one outlined in 1812 about the Constitution of Cádiz.Downloads
