The current article will deal with property in Cuban Liberal Constitutionalism of the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries. We begin by addressing the peculiarities of Cuban liberalism in the context of the Nineteenth Century, shaded by the continued existence of slavery and the colonial relationship with Spain that influenced its emergence and development. In second place, property will be discuss within Spanish Constitutionalism, given its influence on Cuban liberal doctrine and practice. Thirdly, property will be treated within the Cuban Constitutional past of the Nineteen Century, with emphasis on its liberal imprint. Finally, the Cuban Constitution of 1901 will be analyzed as a synthesis of Nineteenth-Century Cuban liberal thought on property. With this it will be possible to conclude that the Constitution of 1901 represented the height and fall of the Cuban liberal thought of Nineteen Century.
