This is a much-needed new overview of Spanish social and political
history which sets developments in twentieth-century Spain within a
broader European context. Julian Casanova, one of Spain's leading
historians, and Carlos Gil Andres chart the country's experience of
democracy, dictatorship and civil war and its dramatic
transformation from an agricultural and rural society to an
industrial and urban society fully integrated into Europe. They
address key questions and issues that continue to be discussed and
debated in contemporary historiography, such as why the Republic
was defeated, why Franco's dictatorship lasted so long and what
mark it has left on contemporary Spain. This is an essential book
for students as well as for anyone interested in Spain's turbulent
twentieth century."
