Book Synopsis Spain by : Michael Reid

Download or read book Spain written by Michael Reid. This book was released on 2023-04-18. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An incisive account of modern Spain, from the death of Franco to the Catalan referendum and beyond “Comprehensive and engaging.”—Gideon Rachman, Financial Times Spain’s transition to democracy after Franco’s long dictatorship was widely hailed as a success, ushering in three decades of unprecedented progress and prosperity. Yet over the past decade its political consensus has been under severe strain. A stable two-party system has splintered, with disruptive new parties on the far left and far right. No government has had a majority since 2015. Michael Reid overturns the stereotypical view of Spain as a country haunted by its Francoist past. From Catalan separatism and the indignados movement to the Spanish economy’s overdependence on tourism and small business, Spain’s challenges can often seem unique. But Reid is careful to emphasize the many pressures it faces in common with its European neighbors—such as austerity, populism, and increasing polarization. The result is a penetrating yet rounded portrait of a vibrant country—one that is more often visited than understood.

Book excerpt: Mercè Rius, pone de manifiesto en este estudio que la obra de Eugenio d'Ors conectaba con los debates filosóficos del siglo XX mediante hilos mucho más finos que los percibidos inicialmente. Hoy se ratifica en su creciente estimación, sobre todo frente a aquellos cuya empedernida ignorancia llega al colmo de negarle todavía la credencial de filósofo. A través de esta investigación, la autora trata de mostrar que D'Ors, ni se equivocaba ni obraba de mala fe al considerarse ante todo filósofo. Para ello, realiza un balance de la filosofía orsiana resituándola en un horizonte más vasto tras descubrirle nuevos aspectos, cuyas afinidades con otros autores contemporáneos de tradición europea sugieren el alto nivel y la oportunidad histórica del pensamiento orsiano.
