Throughout the 1960s, glossy images of high-rise hotels, crowded beaches, and blondes in bikinis flooded public space in Spain as the Franco regime showcased its success. In Destination Dictatorship, Justin Crumbaugh argues that the spectacle of the tourist boom took on a sociopolitical life of its own, allowing the Franco regime to change in radical and profound ways, to symbolize those changes in a self-serving way, and to mobilize new reactionary social logics that might square with the structural and cultural transformations that came with economic liberalization. Crumbaugh's illuminating analysis of the representation of tourism in Spanish commercial cinema, newsreels, political essays, and other cultural products overturns dominant assumptions about both the local impact of tourism development and the Franco regime's final years. 606 $aTourism$zSpain 606 $aTourism$xPolitical aspects$zSpain 606 $aTourism$xGovernment policy$zSpain 606 $aCulture and tourism$zSpain 606 $aFascism$zSpain$xHistory 606 $aMotion pictures$xStudy and teaching 607 $aSpain$xSocial conditions 607 $aSpain$xPolitics and government 615 0$aTourism 615 0$aTourism$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aTourism$xGovernment policy 615 0$aCulture and tourism 615 0$aFascism$xHistory. 615 0$aMotion pictures$xStudy and teaching. 676 $a338.4/79146 700 $aCrumbaugh$b Justin$01593087 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910818273303321 996 $aDestination dictatorship$93913035 997 $aUNINA
