Abstract
¿Is it possible to provide some novelties in regard to the disentailment process in Spain in 2014? We believe so. This paper aims to present a portion of the research results about the General Confiscation in Ciudad Real, the Spanish province where a higher number of estates were sold and, therefore, the place where most significant was its impact. This research is sustained over the analysis of a wide selection of documental sources, as well as a renewed methodology that doesn't focuses purely quantitative but qualitative aspects in a comparative frame. The principal aim consists in finding out those individuals who acquired properties, to appreciate the social transformations provoked by this process and to evaluate the rural society —especially the agrarian sectors— in the disentailment process to establish a regional model related to the inner Spain. The answers to this first question point to the second one: to connect the role of the confiscations in the local elites construction process in the 19th Century Spain, as well as the bonds among local powers, spoils system and disentailment process. This allows to provide relevant conclusions regarding to the social consequences of disentailment process and, at de same time, to get over two pioneer works.
