| Summary: | The article deals with the role of historians of Spanish America for the shaping of a national historical discourse in 19th and 20th-Century Spain.

Despite of the democratization process since 1975, apologetic approaches are still strong and influential in the public sphere. The way overcoming these tendencies should be a systematic de-nationalization and internationalization of Spanish historical research. |
