Synopsis The Government and Politics of Spain by : Paul M. Heywood
Despite the widespread attention attracted by Spain's remarkable transition from General Franco's repressive dictatorship to a dynamic democracy, this is the first comprehensive study in English of the new Spanish political system. The book introduces the main institutions and features of the contemporary Spanish state and assesses to what extent these still bear the imprint of the Francoist legacy. Despite some remaining obstacles and difficulties, Paul Heywood argues, the country is now decisively in the political mainstream of the new Europe.

Synopsis Political Power in Spain by : Xavier Coller
This book explores why some people become politicians, how they represent citizens in parliaments, and what they think about democracy and its institutions. It analyses the results of the first survey of a representative sample of Spanish MPs (580 cases) and citizens. The study covers areas such as: social profiles; recruitment and selection; women in parliaments; motivation for politics; perception of the representative function and how this is affected by corruption, disaffection and mistrust; national and regional identities; ideology; the functioning of parliamentary groups, and perceptions about the EU. The case of Spain is used to demonstrate how MPs' values, opinions and attitudes conflict and complement with those of the citizens they are supposed to represent. Through a systematic comparison between MPs and citizens, the contributions deal with topics that are key to understanding how democracies work and the role played by MPs.

Synopsis The Political System of Spain as Member State of the European Union by : Kostadin Ruychev
Essay from the year 2017 in the subject Politics - Topic: European Union, grade: 5.50, Anglia Ruskin University, language: English, abstract: Spain was established as a social and democratic state, respecting the rule of law and advocating higher goals: establishment of the legal order, protecting freedom, justice, equality on all base and pluralism in politics. The people of Spain have their national sovereignty – from it are derived the powers of the state as such. Parliamentary monarchy is the political form of the Spanish state. The King is the symbol of the unity and perseverance of its country. As such he supervises the everyday functioning of the institutions. In the present paper, I will investigate the political system of Spain, its benefits, and flaws, as well as the future challenges posed in front of the country.

Synopsis The Government and Politics of Spain by : Paul Heywood
Contemporary Spain is virtually unrecognisable compared with what it was like when General Franco died in 1975. Since 1975 the country has undergone a dramatic political transformation. This book provides the first comprehensive assessment of the government and politics of democratic Spain, setting its distinctive features in both historical and comparative context. The book pays particular attention to the devolved and regional character of Spanish government, the role of the monarchy and the constitution and the evolution of the political parties since the downfall of the dictatorship.
