Abstract: Tomando como referencia el marco cronológico comprendido entre 1844 y 1868, este estudio pretende aproximarse al concepto de representación política vigente en la España isabelina, utilizando como principal hilo conductor la discusión y elaboración de las distintas leyes electorales. Como elemento central del análisis, se ha seleccionado la figura del elegible, debido a su capacidad para catalizar un extenso y complejo debate acerca de la ciudadanía, la independencia política y la caracterización del mandato parlamentario. En ella, de hecho, vinieron a converger la efervescente dialéctica parlamentaria, el interés de la publicística de la época y buena parte de la construcción intelectual del liberalismo decimonónico español.
Taking the period from 1844 to 1868 as a chronological reference, this study attempts to understand the concept of political representation developed by Spanish liberalism in the mid 19th century We have selected the term "eligible" as the central element in our analysis of the debate that took place at the time and of the writing of the electoral laws, for it condenses a complex discussion of citizenship, political independence, and characterization of the parliamentary mandate. The figure of the "eligible" gave rise not only to passionate parliamentary speeches but also to a wide range of written works about political representation. It became, to a large extent, one of the main themes of the intellectual construction of Spanish Liberalism.
