España y los Estados Unidos de Norte América : $b a propósito de la guerra

A concise yet probing essay written at the close of the nineteenth century, this work examines the political turmoil that erupted when the United States intervened in Cuba, a Spanish colony. Structured in three parts—exploring the war’s causes, Spain’s place among modern powers, and the specific relationship with the United States—the author sets out to assess the legitimacy of the conflict from a perspective that is both historical and philosophical.

Avoiding partisan labels, the writer relies on documented facts to question the moral and legal foundations of American involvement, invoking international law’s prohibition against meddling in other nations’ internal affairs. By referencing earlier diplomatic precedents and the broader implications for peace, the essay invites listeners to consider how the clash of empires was justified—or condemned—through the lenses of law, ethics, and national destiny.
