«Historia contemporánea universal» is the history textbook by Ángeles Lario, published by Alianza Editorial in paperback (376 pages, in Spanish).
This textbook covers the first part of Contemporary History, understood as a long nineteenth century. It starts from the revolutionary processes that replaced the Ancien Régime with the liberal model in the political, economic and social spheres, and analyses the construction of the contemporary state: national sovereignty, representation, separation of powers and defence of the rights of man and of the citizen. It also studies the English Revolution as the origin of the new political ideology and the key concepts of the constitutional century, such as liberalism, parliamentarism, republicanism or electoral systems.
The subtitle of the work is «Del surgimiento del Estado contemporáneo a la Primera Guerra Mundial». It is part of the collection «El libro universitario - Manuales».
Aimed at university students and those approaching contemporary history for the first time who seek a reference academic textbook.
