The generalized economic crisis in Europe and the workers' discontent led to a rapid and extensive wave of revolutions in 1848, also known as La Primavera de Los Pueblos. But, like the previous ones, they were dominated by force and did not succeed. In all these changes, the great winner is the bourgeoisie, for its influence in the different regimes, and the consolidation of the free market. Meanwhile, the European proletariat failed to maintain its conquests and continued with poor working conditions until the 20th century.
