Packed with current facts and statistics, this book offers an unbiased view of a modern country, making it an ideal source for undergraduate students and scholars.

Well-deployed primary sources and brisk writing by Wayne H. Bowen make this an excellent framework for understanding the evolution of U.S. policy toward Spain, and thus how a nation facing a global threat develops strategic relationships over time. President Harry S. Truman harbored an abiding disdain for Spain and its government. During his presidency (1945–1953), the State Department and the Department of Defense lobbied Truman to form an alliance with Spain to leverage that nation’s geostrategic position, despite Francisco Franco’s authoritarian dictatorship. The eventual alliance between the two countries came only after years of argument for such a shift by nearly the entire U.S. diplomatic and military establishment. This delay increased the financial cost of the 1953 defense agreements with Spain, undermined U.S. planning for the defense of Europe, and caused dysfunction over foreign policy at the height of the Cold War.

Buying into Change examines how the development of a mass consumer society under the dictatorship of General Francisco Franco (1939–1975) inserted Spain into transnational consumer networks and set the stage for Spain’s transition to democracy during the late 1970s. This transition is broadly significant to both a Spanish public still struggling to redefine their society after Franco and to scholars who have long debated the origins of Spain’s current democracy, yet many aspects of it remain largely unexamined. Buying into Change incorporates mass consumption into our understanding of Spain’s democratic transition by tracing the spread and social impact of new foreign-influenced department stores, of imported innovations such as modern mass advertising, and of consumer magazines that promoted foreign products. Initially, these enterprises backed Franco’s conservative policies, and the regime in turn encouraged consumption in order to improve its image both domestically and abroad. Spain’s new globally oriented commerce ultimately sold retailers and shoppers not just foreign ways of buying and selling but also subversive ideas. Imported 1960s fashions brought along countercultural notions on issues such as gender equality. And as Spaniards consumed more like their foreign neighbors, they increasingly viewed themselves as cosmopolitan and European and identified with liberal political conditions abroad, undermining Francoism’s doctrine of national exceptionalism, thus laying the social foundations for democratization and European integration in Franco’s wake.

Este libro presenta un análisis de las relaciones que, durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial y la postguerra hasta 1953, mantuvieron con la España franquista los cuatro Estados que protagonizaron de manera principal aquella contienda. Rehuyendo los postulados de la historia diplomática tradicional, en este obra se analizan los procesos de toma de decisión; los condicionantes ideológicos y estratégicos de los mismos; los protagonistas principales y las actuaciones fundamentales de los cuatro países hacia la España de Franco. Todo ello en el contexto del cambio de paradigma fundamental que de las relaciones internacionales se dio durante los períodos citados: la sustitución del antifascismo como paradigma dominante en las mismas por el retorno del anticomunismo. Investigado a partir de fondos públicos y privados de archivos estadounidenses, alemanes, británicos y japoneses, algunos de ellos inéditos, el libro representa una contribución destacada en el esfuerzo por estudiar al otro, en este caso exterior, en relación con la España franquista. Todo ello de la mano de cinco reputados especialistas en los cuatro países investigados, los profesores Bowen, Rodao, SáenzFrancés, Moreno y Thomàs.
