This book by Ángel Viñas explores the relationship between Spain and the United States from the Franco dictatorship to the government of Felipe González. It analyzes how, after World War II, Franco sought the support of the U.S. to legitimize himself internationally, offering in return concessions detailed in the "Madrid Pacts." The work examines Spain's dependence on the U.S. and the efforts of officials to mitigate it, revealing a vassalage relationship that the transition governments tried to correct, until the socialists managed to establish a relationship of sovereign equality.
Ángel Viñas Martín is a Spanish economist and historian. He has published many works dealing with the Spanish Civil War focusing on the war finance as well as the international relations aspects of the conflict.
