Popis: Nicomedes-Pastor Diaz Corbelle (Viveiro, 1811 - Madrid, 1863) has passed to posterity as a remarkable writer and liberal-conservative politician of the mid-nineteenth century; however, his prominent role in some moments of the Spanish policy has not been sufficiently investigated and his participation in the political-financial lobby formed in the Moderate Decade is not usually considered by his biographers. This study delves into these last two questions and focuses into a historical scenery in which, in addition to civil liberties regression, some actions tending to undue enrichments were generated, most of them promoted by groups in the power, and in an economic context in which irregularities and crises would have occurred in a similar way as those that happened recently in our country.
