This book examines the formulation of British and American policy
between 1945 and 1955 towards one of the most hated regimes of this
century. The Franco question though apparently not of the first
importance in the evolution of Cold War policy, nevertheless
haunted British and American governments during this period. It
posed a problem which epitomises the difficulty of dealing with
pariah regimes. As such it highlights for historians the attempts
of these two governments to straddle the contradictions inherent in
the emerging dual system of the United Nations, or
internationalism, on the one hand, and the older system of balance
of power, played out by the super powers as the Cold War. Set as it
is in the domestic and international context, it also exemplifies
the problems faced today by individual governments and by the
United Nations in dealing with questions of intervention or
non-intervention in distasteful regimes.
