AB This study examines the dissemination of English Liberalism, as expounded by Herbert Spencerin The Man versus the State (1884), by analysing various Spanish translations published in Spainand Hispanic America between 1885 and 2019. In terms of methodology, this analysis drawson (i) the assumptions of Descriptive Translation Studies and Cultural Translation Studies; (ii)Lépinette’s (1997) approach to translation history, which combines the socio-cultural with thedescriptive-contrastive approaches; and (iii) Toury’s (1995) normative-descriptive model. Tothat end, an in-depth study of the various translations is first presented to identify the initialand preliminary norms, paying particular attention to the profile of translators, publishers, andparatexts, followed by an analysis of the operational and linguistic-textual norms. It is concludedthat the dissemination of liberal political thought in The Man versus the State was influenced bythe intricate network of language and text, encompassing intertextuality across the multitudeof Spanish translations that emerged between 1885 and 2019 and by the agents and paratextscontextualising these versions.
