This article highlights the role of parliaments in the process of state and nation building in the Hispanic world during the early-nineteenth century. It approaches the convening and institutionalization of parliaments from a transnational perspective. By especially considering the cases of Spain and New Granada/Colombia in the 1810s and 1820s, the article seeks to demonstrate how institution-building accelerated the transformation of the notion of sovereignty in a transnational space that transcended and joined regions, nations, and empires. Cet article éclaire le rôle des parlements dans le processus de construction de l’État et de la nation dans le monde hispanique, durant le premier xixe siècle. Il considère la création et l’institutionnalisation des parlements à partir d’une perspective transnationale. En examinant particulièrement les cas de l’Espagne et de la Nouvelle-Grenade/Colombie dans les années 1810 et 1820, l’article cherche à démontrer comment la construction institutionnelle a accéléré la transformation de la notion de souveraineté dans un espace transnational, et a joint régions, nations et empires.
