La Transición en España, España en transición

The Spanish Transition has been one of the most relevant periods in our History from a political, social and economic point of view. Spain never enjoyed a period of greater freedom, nor did its population have a similar standard of living. However, it has always been the object of criticism, especially in academic circles and among some political sectors; This aspect has been increasing in recent years, especially among the youngest in society, those most affected by the 2008 crisis, who see an uncertain future and do not feel represented by the process that modernized the country of their parents and grandparents. Alfonso Pinilla traces in this book a History of the Transition, with its pros and cons, its successes and failures, its lights and its shadows. A process of institutional political change that begins with the death of Franco in 1975; although, the sociological change had already begun to take place since the previous decade. This historical journey ends in our days, not because the Transition is now ending but because current criticisms of it keep it alive, both among the political class and in the media. "The Transition in Spain. Spain in transition" aims to be an enlightening book, which provides a little light to the controversy about whether that period was positive or not; simply by telling what happened and how Spanish society perceived it, and perceives it today.
