Perhaps more than any other European country, Spain has undergone a
remarkable transformation in the post-war period. To the surprise
of many, it has succeeded in making the leap from a predominantly
agricultural and politically repressed country, to a modern
European democracy with a diversified economy containing important
manufacturing and service sectors. Yet, despite the fact that at
the beginning of the twenty-first century Spain is the world's
eighth largest economy, old stereotypes that see the Iberian nation
as an inflexible, unchanging society, persist. As such, scholars
will welcome this new study which challenges the picaresque and
outdated notions of Spanish economic development, replacing them
with a picture of rapid and profound modernization. Building upon
the recent work of historians and economists, the authors provide a
thoughtful and compelling overview of the subject that clearly
elucidates both the positive and negative aspects of modern Spanish
development. Thus, as well as charting the undoubted successes
achieved, persistent problems - most notably high unemployment -
are also explored. Written in a straightforward and engaging
manner, this book engages with research from a wide variety of
disciplines, and will be of interest to anyone with a specific
interest in modern Spain, or a wider interest in economic
development within the framework of the European Union.
