La Riqueza de las Naciones (WN) de Adam Smith no fue traducida de modo completo al castellano hasta ya bien entrada la segunda mitad del siglo XX; en cambio, los libros de Jean Baptiste Say fueron los textos de Economía Política más traducidos en España hasta 1840. Es reconocida la escasa difusión de la WN en España, pero es impreciso el nivel de influencia del liberalismo económico a través de la repercusión de otros autores, como es el caso de Jean Baptiste Say y sus seguidores. Ilustrar conocimientos sobre esta cuestión es el objetivo de este ensayo, cuyo cometido principal será fundamentar la política comercial exterior española ante el debate entre librecambismo y proteccionismo.
