At sixteen, he was awarded a bachelor's degree in humanities from the College of San Bartolom, Colombia. In 1837, he was awarded a doctorate in law by the University of Magdalena. Arosemena spent most of his life in government, serving as minister of foreign relations (18481849), speaker of the Chamber of Deputies of the Colombian Congress (1852), senator, president of theConstitutional Conventionof Ro Negro (1863), and the first president of the Federal State of Panama (1855). He wrote extensively on law and politics and was a prominent exponent of European liberal ideas. He belonged to the radical faction of the Liberal Party, the Golgotha. Arosemena believed that freedom had to reach everyone in society and that this required sovereignty. He favored autonomy for the isthmus. Arosemena envisioned the potential economic benefits that could be derived from an interoceanic canal, but he warned against foreign domination. Although he admired the U.S. political system, he spoke against U.S. intervention in other countries, particularly after the Mexican War (1846 - 1848). His most important works are Examen sobre la franca comunicacin entre los dos ocanos por el istmo de Panama (1846), Estudios constitucionales (1852), and El Estado Federal de Panama (1855).
