| Sumario: | Shortly after the official declaration of independence in 1821,Mexicobecame a constitutional monarchy. This turned out to be only a brief experience due to the lack of a social agreement regarding the political system to be adopted. The establishment of the First Empire offers meaningful clues about the different political concepts and traditions in force at the time and the corresponding conflicts. By investigating the symbology of the coronation ceremony of Agustín I, this paper seeks to evince that the said ceremony was characterized by an ambivalent political content. This indicates that the First Empire was a failure from its foundation, which allows us to appreciate the unfinished struggle between absolutism and the republic and between the old and the new concepts of society. |
