Politics, Economic Interests and Filibustering: The Failure of the Spanish-German Treaty (1893)
This article studies the failure of the Spanish-German treaty signed in 1893. The examination of the process that led to its derailment in the Spanish senate contributes to the historiography in the following ways. First, the composition of the executive that promoted the agreement illustrates the fragility of the protectionist agro-industrial coalition, as shown for Germany, in late-nineteenth century Spain. Second, the non-ratification of this …
Politics and interests in the classical gold standard. Spain (1876-1913)
Spain never formally joined the classical gold standard, partly because its aspiration for gold convertibility did not match the financing needs of the Treasury. This paper illustrates how preferences for convertibility, that is, for fixed exchange rates, were shared by the parliamentary representatives of its manufacturing provinces because of their dependency on imported inputs (coal and cotton). However, to explain their preference for currenc…
Trigo y política: El proteccionismo cerealista en el Parlamento, 1886-1890
This paper studies the channels through which the agrarian crisis (1886-1890) arrived in the Spanish Parliament and, once there, centered the economic debate until an increase of protectionism was passed. The analysis of the roll-call votes on agrarian customs that took place in those years allows to identify, narrative and quantitatively, the line-up of congressmen according to partisan guides, but, also, according to the economic interests, agr…
Entre ideas e intereses. El final del movimiento de libre comercio español, 1879-c. 1903
This paper researches the unexplored life of the Asociación para la Reforma de los Aranceles de Aduanas (Association for the Reform of Customs Tariffs) after its “reconstitution” in 1879. The result is a picture of a group of academics, politicians and businessmen actively involved in the spreading of free trade ideas during the 1880s and early 1890s, coinciding with the disappearance of this type of organization in continental Europe. Neither di…
Budget deficits and money creation: Exploring their relation before Bretton Woods
The sovereign debt crisis in the Eurozone has rekindled the use of the North–South (core-periphery) terminology to refer to the heterogeneity of countries belonging to the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU). In the gold standard literature, this geographical partition had already been employed to oppose the fiscal profligacy and subsequent problems of convertibility of southern countries against the fiscal probity and long convertibility records o…
Gone With the Euro: A Reappraisal of the Peseta’s Adjustment Mechanism (1870-1998)
The peseta was the Spanish currency for more than a century and, during this time, it played a remarkable role in adjusting the balance of payments. This paper presents a chronology of the moments when the adjustment was crucial, which, consistent with the macro-trilemma, coincided with periods of external openness. Moreover, this paper provides empirical support to the thesis that links the exceptionality of a floating peseta during the gold sta…
Trade openness and public expenditure. The Spanish case, 1960–2000
The peripheral protectionist backlash in the First Globalization: Spain (1870-1913)
This paper studies the role played by different trade barriers (transport costs, customs and currency) in the evolution of Spanish imports during the First Globalization (1870-1913). Through the estimation of several gravity equations with panel data analysis, we obtain the elasticities of imports to each barrier, which allows us to combine them into a single ad valorem measure of barriers to trade (which we call the trade costs tariff equivalent…
Una mirada ingenua sobre las series del sector exterior, 1869–1999
Este trabajo propone periodificar el sector exterior de la España contemporánea (1869–1999) con mirada ingenua . Es decir, su propuesta es periodificar dejando que sea el análisis estadístico de las nuevas series de Prados (2003), quien establezca etapas y las caracterice. Los resultados así obtenidos permiten afirmar que existieron dos etapas compactas pero diferentes entre sí, separadas por una larga transición. La primera etapa, hasta 1935, fu…
Does fiscal policy influence monetary policy? The case of Spain, 1874–1935
Una cuestión a debatir. El nuevo perfil del proteccionismo español durante la Restauración
Cuando el más reciente artículo de Tena sobre indicadores de protección ve la luz en las páginas de esta Revista (otoño-invierno de 1999), nos encuentra trabajando en el vínculo entre apertura externa y crecimiento económico español a largo plazo. Somos por entonces plenamente conscientes de cuan sensibles son los resultados econométricos al indicador de protección considerado, de forma que la lectura de una propuesta de medición alternativa no p…
