Insightful and accessible, A Social History of Modern Spain is the
first comprehensive social history of modern Spain in any language.
Adrian Shubert analyzes the social development of Spain since 1800.
He explores the social conflicts at the root of the Spanish Civil
War and how that war and the subsequent changes from democracy to
Franco and back again have shaped the social relations of the
country. Paying equal attention to the rural and urban worlds and
respecting the great regional diversity within Spain, Shubert draws
a sophisticated picture of a country struggling with the problems
posed by political, economic, and social change. He begins with an
overview of the rural economy and the relationship of the people to
the land, then moves on to an analysis of the work and social lives
of the urban population. He then discusses the changing roles of
the clergy, the military, and the various local government,
community, and law enforcement officials. A Social History of
Modern Spain concludes with an analysis of the dramatic political,
economic, and social changes during the Franco regime and during
the subsequent return to democracy.
