When the post-war relationship between Spain and America began,
Hitler's old ally was an unlikely candidate for US influence. The
Cold War changed all this. Soon there were US bases on Spanish
territory and a political conjuring trick was under way. This
volume examines the public diplomacy strategies that the US
government employed to accomplish an almost impossible mission: to
keep a warm relationship with a tyrant without drifting apart from
his opponents, and to somehow pave the way for a transition to
democracy. The book's focus on the perspective of soft power breaks
new ground in understanding US-Spanish relations. In so doing, it
offers valuable lessons for understanding how public diplomacy has
functioned in the past and can function today and tomorrow in
transitions to democracy.
