Descrição
Resumo:The work undertaken by officials and promoters of the Alienation of Church Wealth, resulted in the benefit of some liberal politicians and, at the same time, in the division of property among other social sectors. The objective of this research is to analyze the mechanisms that allowed three Liberal government officials benefit from the process of ecclesiastical confiscation in the Mexican capital, between 1856 and 1858. The basic hypothesis of this paper is that the process of ecclesiastical confiscation had two consequences: property grabbing by representatives and officials, but also the pursuit of awards for the benefit of Mexican society then.
