Spanish transition to democracy revisited
Ramón Areces Foundation Fellowship Seminar
On the anniversary of the death of Francisco Franco, this seminar aims to critically examine the Spanish transition to democracy, moving beyond traditional narratives to address dimensions of the process that are sometimes overlooked. While the transition has been widely studied as a model of political change, it is essential to reassess its complexities, including the role and experience of women, the regional disparities in its development, and the persistence of violence that accompanied it. By bringing together scholars from different backgrounds, this event aims to foster a discussion of the challenges, contradictions and legacies of the transition, ensuring a more comprehensive understanding of this key period in Spanish history.
