Abstract
Spain is put forth in the democratization literature as a model transition to democracy; yet surprisingly the 30 years of democratic governance in Spain have received little attention in other comparative politics literatures. This volume contributes to filling that gap. The Spanish case is important to analyze as it can provide lessons for other countries that are embarking on democratization and consolidation processes, both for its successes and strengths as well as for its failures and weaknesses.
