Abstract
Este trabajo intenta analizar el papel que desempeñaron los capitales movilizados por la Casa de banca Rothschild en la financiación de los gastos del Estado
español durante el Siglo XIX. Por lo tanto, se pretende aportar una cronología elemental
de las relaciones de la Casa Rothschild con las finanzas públicas españolas durante todo el periodo, analizar las operaciones más significativas, cuantificar su volumen anual agregado y hacer un mínimo acercamiento a las variables coste-beneficio que entraron en juego. Para cubrir estos fines se ha contado con fuentes primarias, localizadas en los archivos de las ramas británica y francesa de los Rothschild, cuyos fondos se han contrastado con los de la Administración francesa y española y de instituciones financieras claves en el periodo, como el Banco de España.
This article attempts to analyse the role that the Rothschild House played in the evolution of Spanish Public Finances along the 19th Century. Therefore, it endeavours to describe an elementary chronology of the relationships between the Spanish Government and the Rothschild House during the whole Century, analysing the main financial operations they underwrote, quantifying their annual aggregate figures and, finally, trying to comment upon the different consequences of the process above mentioned. To cover these aims, we have deployed original records from the Rothschild Archives in London and Paris, their contents having been supplemented with information from National Public Records in Spain and France, and other financial institutions, namely the Bank of Spain.
