Abstract
The second constitutional moment that would take place in the Spanish monarchy from 1820 on had important consequences for the configuration of Mexico as an independent State. If, initially, the territory moved towards liberal political forms inserted in the monarchy as a whole, soon after, from 1821, Mexican independence would be proclaimed. This did not mean abandoning the liberal practices implemented from the application of the Constitution of 1812, but their extension in the initial stages of the independent nation. Based on the political projects of self-government that the Mexicans proposed in the Cortes of Madrid in these years, the establishment of constitutional town councils and the electoral practices that allowed a large part of the population to exercise suffrage, this work seeks to account for these changes that, inserted in the logic of Cadiz liberalism, transformed Mexico from viceroyalty into nation-state.
