El conjunto de ensayos recogidos representan un acercamiento a las diferentes propuestas de carácter utópico que marcó la cultura española en la época liberal. La utopía se muestra como un elemento propio de la naturaleza humana, proyectando su identidad e imaginando otros mundos posibles, distintos, plurales, alternativos al entorno en que se ve obligado a vivir el ser humano.

Este texto analiza la trayectoria y actividad parlamentarias de Manuel Cortina Arenzana entre 1839 y 1856. Fue un carismático líder progresista, ministro de Gobernación durante la Regencia del general Espartero. Destacado miembro de las élites parlamentarias liberales, apostó por la conciliación y el entendimiento entre las diferentes facciones del liberalismo español, sin renunciar a sus principios progresistas. Su actividad parlamentaria, influida por su sólida formación como jurista, contribuyó sustancialmente a asentar principios básicos del Estado liberal.
