• Sommario/riassunto: This book examines the historical development of democracy in Spain throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries by focusing on local political socialization processes. It challenges conventional narratives by highlighting the complexities of Spain's political culture, especially in rural areas previously perceived as apolitical and unprepared for democracy. The book aims to provide a new narrative that aligns more closely with the democratic histories of other European countries. It is targeted towards contemporary historians and social scientists interested in Spain and Europe's political history, engaging in a multidisciplinary dialogue between history, sociology, and political science. Edited by Antonio Herrera and Francisco Acosta, the book features contributions from multiple scholars and includes a special chapter on the broader debates surrounding democracy.
