Abstract

It is proposed that doctrinal principles (liberal and conservative) of the Cadiz Constitution of 1812 are present in the Peruvian legislative codification of XIXth century. This proposition is tested through the validity of three of the most significant precepts of that Constitution: the vote of the illiterate Indians, the indirect election of the provincial town councils and the legal protection of the Catholic religion by the State. Therefore, It is analyzed the Peruvian constitution between 1823 and 1860, as well as the political literature of that time.
