Lucas Ignacio Alamán y Escalada (Guanajuato, October 18, 1792 –

Mexico City, June 2, 1853) was a Mexican scientist, politician,

historian and writer. He studied at the Real Colegio de Minas de la

Nueva España. He frequently traveled on his credentials as a

scientist and diplomat, becoming one of the most educated men in

Mexico. At the outset of the war for Mexican independence, in

September 1810, Alamán is said to have been an eyewitness of themassacre of Spanish families in his home city of Guanajuato. This

experience may have influenced his life-long devotion to

conservative politics and his nostalgia for monarchic rule for

Mexico.

In 1821, before the consummation of Mexico's independence,

Alamán was a deputy to the C á d i z C o r t e s (the Spanish national

parliament) for the province of Nueva Galicia (now Jalisco, 

Nayarit, Sonora, Sinaloa, among other states), New Spain. Later in

the same year Mexico won its independence from Spain. Alamán

returned to Mexico and became one of the most influential

politicians in the nascent country. He was a co-founder and

lifelong member of the Mexican Conservative Party, and he

consistently defended the centralist organization of Mexico. It is

said that he was one of those behind the murder of independence

hero Vicente Guerrero. Under the junta that governed Mexico after

the fall of Iturbide, Alamán served from 1823 to 1825 in the

powerful post of Minister of Interior and Exterior Relations

(Min i s t ro de Re l ac iones I n te r i o res e Exter i o res ; the United States 

equivalent of this posting would encompass the combined

functions of Secretary of State, Secretary of the Interior, and

Attorney General). He was a member of the j un ta that briefly

governed Mexico in 1829 after the Plan de Jalapa with the aim of

installing Anastasio Bustamante as president.

Alamán returned to the post of Minister of Interior and Exterior

Relations in 1830-1832 under the Bustamante government. It was

in this capacity that he named Manuel Victoria governor of Alta

California March 8, 1830. In October 1830, he created the B a n c o

Nac iona l de Av í o , the first bank in Mexico. The Banco Nac iona l de

Av ío provided Mexico with the financial infrastructure necessar y

for its burgeoning economy. During the same period Alamánnegotiated a deal with the United States to the north fixing the

national borders of the two nations which held right up to the time

of the Mexican-American War. He also promoted colonizing the

norther n provinces in order to stave off U.S. expansionism.

After what he saw as the disaster of Texas independence from

Mexico in 1836, Alamán largely retired from politics, though hecontinued to promote what he saw as the interests of the country

by serving as Di rector de l a Junta de Fom ento de l a I ndus t r i a

(Directorate for the Promotion of Industry) from 1839 until his

death. For most of the 1840s, he devoted himself primarily to

writing the history of Mexico from the perspective of a

conservative. His three-volume work Diser tac iones sobre l a

H is to r i a de l a Repub l i ca mex i cana (Mexico, 1844-1849) and his

five-volume His tor i a de Méx i co , desde l os p r imeros m ov imientos

que p repara ron s u i ndependenc ia en e l año de 1808 , has ta l a

é p o c a p r e s e n te (Mexico, 1849-1852), stand as the major

intellectual productions of the Conser vative Party in nineteenth-

century Mexico, and the only histories produced by a Mexican

author of his era to view the Spanish presence in his country

favourably.

Among his more important actions are the creation of the Natural

History Museum in Mexico City and the foundation of Mexico's

General National Archive. The latter has been very important for

learning about the historical events in Mexico and understanding

the political processes of the Mexican Republic. He also founded

and ran a mining company, established the first metal foundr y inindependent Mexico in 1825, administered the estates of the

descendants of Hernán Cortés, and served as president of the

Mexico City ayuntami ento (city council) in 1849.

Lucas Alamán returned to national public service in 1851, when

Santa Anna reappointed him for the last time to the post of

Minister of Relations, in which he served until his death from

pneumonia on June 2, 1853.
