What is left of Francisco Franco's legacy in Spain today? Franco
ruled Spain as a military dictator from 1939 until his death in
1975. In October 2019, his remains were removed from the massive
national monument in which they had been buried for forty-four
years. For some, the exhumation confirmed that Spain has long been
a modern, consolidated democracy. The reality is more complicated.
In fact, the country is still deeply affected by the dictatorial
legacies of Francoism. In one short volume, Exhuming Franco covers
all major facets of the Francoist legacy today, combining research
and analysis with reportage and interviews. This book is critical
of Spanish democracy; yet, as the final chapter makes clear, Spain
is one of many countries facing difficult questions about a
conflictive past. To make things worse, the rise of a new,
right-wing nationalist revisionism across the West threatens to
undo much of the progress made in the past couple of decades when
it comes to issues of historical justice.
