The Spanish Socialist Party and the Modernisation of Spain. Providing rich historical background, the book's main focus is on the period since General Franco's death in 1975. It ends with a consideration of Rodriguez Zapatero's period in office between 2004 and 2011 and seeks to explain the reasons behind the party's defeat at the 2011 general election, explaining why Spain has been so badly hit by the current international economic crisis.
